Would we still be able to take advantage of his 1k status during travel if he didn't directly pay? Probably a dumb question, but want to make sure if I book the tickets that his 1k status will still be registered for the booking to get the benefits while traveling.
Doesn't make a bit of difference. He'll be seen as a 1K no matter who buys the tickets.
