1K last year, 1K again this year

Thank god I'm Canada based or I'd be way under the PQD

I will early WAY less RDM this year but still expect 1K, my spend is only about 6K

I maintained my status mainly because I like the GPU's I love to travel overseas and I find them useful as I can choose dates in advance and find open "R" space. I flew Air Canada a few times last year domestically, great service and great product, but the way AC makes you book higher fares to get full miles steers me away from them.

On a positive note, I lost my passport on a stopover in EWR on a UA award ticket (on a partner carrier) and UA was amazing on re-booking me on a direct flight to NRT and even refunded me miles
