First, apologies in advance for the selfish post. Feel free to ignore.
As a long time UA 1K flyer recently demoted to 0K (Yay!), now may be time time to actually execute the bluff many of us UA Mileage Plus members have been making for years, namely to actually leave UA.
I'd be interested in any recommendations on mileage programs given that it would virtually be starting from scratch (so the fastest path to some/any sort of status would be ideal, heh!).
Travel is primarily between the following destinations (in order of frequency):
SAN to PDX
SAN to SFO/SJC
SAN to LAS
SAN to ORD/MID
SAN to MIA
SAN to Asia
SAN to Europe
