Alright friends, first time poster, long time lurker. Is it worth it for me to go for platinum 1K?? Here'd my story: I have platinum locked in for 2022. Achieving1K will need significant CC spend and $2000 in an unplanned trip. I plan on 2-3 long haul international flights with spouse (not mileageplus member) and 9 short hall domestic flights with spouse. WIll also have 750K united miles that I would like to start spending. What are your thoughts? If I get 1K should I defer using my mile for the whole year to take advantage of free upgrades?
