I’m relocating to San Francisco in June after living in Australia for the last few years. My flight back to the US will get me Gold status on AA. However, I currently have silver Status on Delta. I am half way to renewing my status on Delta. For the rest of the year, I have 4.5 cross country trips that I need to schedule. I can’t choose my carrier on the flight from Australia.

My question is, should I go all in on AA? Or should I try to keep my silver status on Delta? I realize United is the dominant carrier out of SFO. Is it possible to get status on United before the end of the year?
