Yes, you get MM status under the NEW program. This was expected when the new MM program was announced. There are pluses and minuses.... for some, more of one than the other depending on their personal situation.

Now, if you crossed 1MM with the pre 1/1 UA adjustment and adding in CO miles travelled since the merger was announced, you might have a case to argue you should be grandfathered in. If they were advertising that you should be assured you will suffer no negative effect by spreading your spend across CO and that may have caused you to send some UA miles to the CO side, I think one could have a case to be grandfathered, but I think that situation is very rare.

Note the additional miles in this adjustment is a big gift since UA did not include these bonus EQMs in its calcs before.
