Buy up?
Hello!
I have been desperately looking for cheap flights to get my last 678 miles needed to ensure my gold status. I then thought just buying up would be just as cost-effective. As of now, I have 44k+ mile, but will have 49k+ as of Dec. 14th. I got a quote for buying up today, and the dollar value was less than the stated number needed for 5,000-9,999. Do they quote on a percentage of the miles needed? So if I only need like 678 miles, it will be less than the $249 listed on the site for 1-1,999? If so, perfect, I'll just buy up on Dec. 16th.
Thanks in advance for your help!
