Amen!
It’s time for United to cut the cord and trim the herd. The mileage thresholds have been low enough for those who have been flying and there is no guarantee that business travel will return to pre-pandemic levels that soon. I think many companies will keep a watchful eye on travel expenses for the next few years. The pandemic has taught us many things can get done ( not all…) without jumping in a plane for a few day meeting.
I was glad to see United (and others) significantly raise thresholds for status in 2024. You want Elite status…… Fly!
