19K on US, leaving me 6K short of Silver (long story, don't ask )

I have a flight to HKG in a couple of weeks, which will get me over with AS, but what to do with the 6K I will earn each way flying AC YVR-BKK? Do I split it so I have status on both UA and US? The new UA MP program looks pretty grim for Golds...is it worth dumping all of it on UA and then MR-ing it to Platinum? Are the benefits at 75k all that much better?

What to do?
The benefits of United Platinum are a lot better, but you an awful long way from Platinum.
