"The bump" took me more than two years closer to MM status and I should hit the mark sometime this year.
Upgrades won't make much of a difference to me and my wife. But with matched status we will be able to take even more luggage on those cargo runs to our home in Brazil!
And I will be done making mileage runs just to be sure I got Prem Exec every year.
I predict that UA will actually lose revenue from us through this benefit.
