Hi there,

First post in the US Air forums, long-time Continental then AA flyer who had to start flying UA due to AA not covering the city I need to go to. I made the observation while being stuck for 5 hours at an airport that US Air flew there, and thought hey I wonder if I got status on US if it would transfer back to AA, then I saw you could buy up ...

Any ideas on the best time to pick up the Preferred Buy up for this (now, October, Jan of next year)? I was originally planning on having my platinum AA status fall to Gold; however, AA nixed that, and I am 40K from 1MM lifetime on AA, and with the current travels should have UA 1K by year end.

Thanks for any and all advice!
