I would have thought UA would have cut a deal with Chase to make the Club card more valuable and increase UA's revenue share from the card.. The extra PQP doesn't do existing 1K's any good (just like the waived award redeposit fees). The associated Club membership is close to useless even if you are flying, given the number of closed Clubs and limited offerings, plus I don't get an extension because it's not a "purchased" membership. I realize you don't want to create a situation where you can purchase a higher level than you would otherwise qualify for, but isn't UA desperate for cash? They're not going to get it through ticket sales. And will Chase wave or delay my next annual fee charge?
