I know EK is partners with those 2 airlines in the US but I'm not sure about AC. In that case, should I accrue silver on UA and then switch over to AC next year? Thanks again!
Oh, I see!
Well... in that case I think put the EK miles to CO.
I have checked the UA site, but did not find any infos
about is the EK miles count as EliteQM or not...
CO offers 100-150% status miles for all EK classes...
By the way... If you have a plan to fly 15000 miles on UA,
(I hope still) there is a status trial at UA.
Just register and fly 15000 or more UA metal within a month
and be a PremEx.
For more infos, contact Mileage Plus.
