1. During trial period of 120-day, would the status also be already valid on other *A carriers and is there digital card available? I’ve forward start in few weeks.

2. Should the match isn’t completed, soft landing to the next lower status or to zero?

Lots of experiences related to both questions will be found earlier in the thread.

Thanks in advance for any tip.
1. No digital card, status benefits generally only available to flights booked on UA tickets (016 tickets).
Partner lounge access may work if 016 ticket
Challenge PQPs can only be earned on UA operated flights

2. Generally it is an all or nothing challenge but occasional UA will offer a lower level
