Maybe you got a 'manual' status update that isn't picked up by the automatic batch. (I'm guessing here, but it's not impossible that batches are triggered by automated status changes)

Open to any other thoughts anyone else wants to share - otherwise, i'm resigned to PR-EXEC for another international trip, I suspect.
What "1K over 1P" benefits do you want ?
If you're waiting for upgrades, just call reservations and ask them to process your upgrade manually if there is NF/NC space available and you're within the 1K window.
If you're a 1K in UA's system, that will be reflected at the airport (red carpet / checkin). I once did online checkin the night before an early morning flight. The next morning, I found out I had a higher status level. Asked a random UA agent to reprint my BP. It had the new status level on it ^
