"My teenage son just received the Platinum version of the email including 20 upgrades. His last few flights have been award travel so he hasn't accumulated many miles recently. The timing is good though as he will be flying every few weeks this summer. "
Did he have status last year or was he gold this year?
Just trying to figure out what differentiates the free gold folks from the free platinum folks. Would much prefer the 100% mileage bonus of platinum.
Nice score on his behalf - especially with all that upcoming travel.
