This removed the annual RPUs for UA MMers and replaced it with the companion status benefit (note options were split on this)
Note these RPUs were in additional to the 1K allocation.
Okay, that sucks then but it’s not like PlusPoints are particularly easy to use anyway. This does confirm to me that 2MM and global MM devaluations are coming. It’s a matter of when, not if. Even with the changes, I don’t think 2MM is a very interesting status to have unless the MM is earning 1K or GS to pass to a companion. As an end state lifetime status, it still feels very mediocre.
