I am now 8500 club miles away from reaching GO and have a trip from JFK to HKG in Y (8050 club miles) coming up in 6 weeks. Do you think they would bump me up early if I write in so I can use my GO benefits on the flight?
Thank you.
I have been 55K SL for years in the old days (5000K short, never bother to mileage run to GO), and they've never up me early when I write and ask about it.
Unpublished benefits may be something like higher op-up order, slightly better treatment from CC during flight, greeting from cabin head, but other than that, the published differences are major enough for you to go after it.
