I'm not sure what you have in mind. Are you referring to the option of buying UA EQM with Choices at 1:10, up to 5K of EQM? That has been and remains a way to "elite status without flying," the subject of this long-running thread, but it is a limited and very, very expensive one. And my point remains that some opportunities may be disappearing, like the possibility of RDM and EQM (5K with $35K spend) from paying taxes with the UA Platinum Visa.
