OK, so, maybe 1MMs pre-boarding isn't the way to go. But I feel that it would be nice if there were some more meaningful perk for me to being a MM. Most of us who have MM status shoot for status higher than gold. And, yes, I get to nominate someone else to share that status (which isn't nothing; I think it's the best part of it). But what do I get other than an occasional thank you? Honestly, I would be happy with free drink and a snack in E like 1Ks enjoy. That can't hurt United's bottom line too much, and it wouldn't really impact anyone else.
