It may look "better" but...

Although I haven't read all the comments, some seem to be saying this is "better" for OnePass people.

What might not be so obvious is that what United is CURRENTLY doing -- giving 2 regionals for flying 10,000 miles in a calendar quarter -- is EVEN BETTER for current OnePass elites, since you can earn up to 8 regionals without getting to 75K.

I have no objection to giving "more" to people who fly more (e.g., maybe give 4 per quarter if you fly 20K, etc.) but all this does is postpone them and limit their number for the average 75K or 100K flier (probably the idea).

Yes, Continental people are better off, but they could be even BETTER off...something not to be forgotten.
