Thanks! A total of 17 flights were domestic and 6 were US or International. I did some math and even if the flights were credited for 100% mileage, I would have tapped out at 32k, enough for Silver tier. It seems that United follows Air Canada's fare class rates based on discount economy now. https://thepointsguy.com/2017/08/uni...iance-flights/
