There's a USA Today article on their web site already. You could comment there.

Exactly - not a DIME from me for 5 months - after being a 1K for 11 years.
The MP program was decimated this year from where I sit.
Any program that bald face LIES to its most loyal flyers abut MP benefits as Million Milers were this year, does not deserve even ONE vote IMHO.
You cannot trust these folks past the next hour to keep their word on anything re MP.
"Information about the MileagePlus program published through united.com is the final authority with respect to the terms and conditions of membership in MileagePlus - - - -."
Phew, well I am glad it was on United.com, which we are now told is "L-A-W ... LAW" for such policy .. so when do we get the clearly promised 2 x CR1s for 2012 Mr Foland?

So how long before COdbaUA stops touting their award winning mileage program? I put the over/under at 2 years. Houston isn't all that smart.

Well there is such a thing as good news in the UA threads!!! I didn't expect nor want UA to win anything as they have shown no reason to deserve an award. The best part was that I even used the link to the Freddies they provided to vote against them.

THEY DINT DESERVE ANY AWARD FOR ANYTHING - Not one single saver award seat avail (NRT-SFO) in Biz or First between JUNE 20 thru SEPT, NOT 1 SINGLE SEAT IN JULY OR AUG!!!! This is unprecedented. DL is looking good to me compared to MP unless this is a glitch.

My wife is a 1K as a result of my MM status, and she has cleared 5 out 6 domestic upgrades - so she loves UA!
