2. RPUs in circulation should come down by 70%+
3. Mileage devaluation should eliminate millions of miles in circulation that could otherwise be used for upgrades
UA should announce changes to the 2020 MP program in Q3/Q4. Wonder if any of those changes will further address this recurring pain point.
Just wishful thinking that UA will enhance MP in passenger’s direction.
One of my wishes is that UA will downgrade the upgrade priority of R class (premium plus). Non elites should not be placed ahead of elites with high economy fare class. I have no problem with A and O classes because they are much more expensive than R class and most Economy class fares.
