The thing is - this is a "benefit" that would cost UA absolutely nothing to handle as pmUA did and make all elites happier with the outcome and yet they remove the benefit for no reason. That's just nuts - arbitrarily annoy your better customers for no gain to the airline? Yes, as a GS I still get priority choice but UA should do it in order for 1Ks and real paid tickets as well.
^ I completely agree but remember, we are dealing with COdbaUA which imho, doesn't give a rat's tuchas about the status a pax holds and if they can't squeeze any money out of a given process, they don't want hear about it.
