CR-1 is confirmed upgrade for USA & Carribean & Central America. You get two for each 10,000 miles flown in a quarter. Like the 6 SWU only 1K the top tier gets them. Like a previous poster stated E plus is worth the switch. I comped Premier Exec at UA several years ago from Delta and have never regretted it. 1K on United is a little difficult to make but once you make it is easier to keep. There are usually many promotions year round to help you get EQM to qualify. Many of your questions will be answered by reading the UA forum.
