Related question: If one's Gold card says it expires 11/08, but one's membership year expired (and dropped to Silver) on 9/15/08, will a reservation made with US or UA on, say, 11/28 show up as *G (allowing a better seat choice on US) or not? Anyone know?

As long as the agent does not repoll the system for your updated status, you should still appear as a *G. Lounge access won't be a problem as your card will still be valid till the end of the month (i.e. end of September).



P.S. On a predominately UK/IRE/EU forum, you might want to reformat your dates in the format that the the rest of the world uses, i.e. DD/MM/YY! Can cause confusion to non-US residents.

I flew US last month and my *G Status didn't show on the boarding pass, nor did Zone 1 boarding.

This year I've had this issue with LH, LX, SA and OS. Simply entering your BD number as point of booking (either web or through t/a) doesn't seem enough to ensure your status is picked up.

Hit and miss with me too, even when entering the BD # at US's SSCI machines. Had to go to the counter for it to be properly registered and zone 1 BPs to be spat out. It seemed to take the CI assistant a rather large amount of typing to carry out this operation.
