Sort of crappy.. CO elites get E+ on UA and we get nothing on CO. "Premium" Seating is a joke (hence why I put it in the title that way)... you still have to pay for everything, there's no additional leg room, no additional boarding privelege... what's premium about it?
At least we beat out most of their members - HA! In fact, 1Ps came out really good in this.
Details about the upgrade hierarchy. When upgrade space becomes available, requests will be prioritized by OnePass or United Mileage Plus elite status, original booking class purchased, and by the time of request. In full disclosure, United’s Premier Executives will have an advantage when traveling on United, because the qualification levels for our Platinum-equivalents are different. Specifically, there’s a large population of United’s Premier Executive customers who have more than Elite Qualification Miles and/or points than our Platinum Elite members.
For travel on United, the clearing order will be:
United Global Services
United 1K
United Premier Executive
Continental Platinum Elite
Continental Gold Elite
United Premier
Continental Silver Elite
For travel on Continental, the clearing order will be:
Continental Platinum Elite
United Global Services
United 1K
Continental Gold Elite
United Premier Executive
Continental Silver Elite
United Premier
Exit row seats on Continental. Just as we do for our Platinum and Gold Elite members do, our current plan is to allow United’s Global Services, 1K and Premier Executive customers to to pre-assign exit row seats.
