I think UA is less happy with me compared to $83,745!!!! Jeez, how do you spend that much money on air travel??

All my tickets except 2 this year have been either in A (AA discounted First), Y or B (AA full-fare). Of those 2 one was booked in H (high-fare coach) and only 1 was in N (discounted coach) for a personal trip. In my line of work I don't find out where I need to be until same day to 4 days before the trip, so always end up with full-fare. As for me switching back to UA - not going to happen. Been there, done that but have tasted something sweeter and theres no looking back. However, I do miss the fact that theres no fee for last-minute awards the larger network of Star Alliance partners. But I guess thats still not enough to wanting me to put up with "Employee Class". In my opinion, had it not been for the UA Flight Attendant union and their demands and attitude, the airline would still be "alive and kickin'". Well, they would at least still be getting the $8,000,000 or so that my company spends on air-travel a year. I am not bashing UA and its an airline i once loved and still have tons of mileage on but its just stating the reasons why I (and why I also made my company switch) switched to another.
