I have 1MM Status and my MP Gold Card NOW shows a 1/25 Expiration. As I have already met the 4 UA Metal Segment Requirement during 2023, my Gold Status is good through 1/25. I am not certain, but if I recall correctly, before I completed the 4 UA Metal Segments this year, the expiration date on my digita MP Gold Cardl was 1/24. Once 2024 rolls around and if I complete 4 UA Metal segments, I believe my expiration date will roll to 1/26. This is the only explanation I could derive for an expiration date for a so called "lifetime benefit".
Lifetime status does not require 4 UA segments annually, To obtain higher than your Lifetime status, yes you then will need the 4 UA segments. That for now will be 1/25 (not 1/26)
Lifetime status is only slight related to this dating of expiration.. As explained earlier,
have requalified for present status, eith by 2023 flight activities or by lifetime status, your card will update.
