Start date for eUpgrades being valid to 2018
 

I can't find this on the Altitude site anywhere. Does anyone know what is the start date for when earned eUpgrades are valid to end Feb 2018? I recall it is usually around the beginning of November but it would be helpful to know the exact day given I have some TPAC travel anticipated for around then.

It is either Oct 31st or Nov 1st.

It is November 1st.

They changed it to Dec 1st one year without any notification. I think it was 3-4 yrs ago just as I was trying to decide whether to give up on AC/AE. It reminded me how much AC treats its Elites with disdain.

In the meantime, my UA account is full of upgrade certificates which are valid until Jan 31, 2018! ^^^

They did it twice actually.

This question would be unnecessary if all eUpgrades were valid for 12 months after the date of issue.

But next we'd be expecting that they could make zone boarding work as advertised, and that's clearly just crazy talk.

They CAN do it. It's pretty obvious they can set any expiry they want.

But they consider it part of the benefit year (which, to be fair, is logical, even if not as consumer-friendly as we'd like), and as such, they line up the expiry with the benefit year.

Is this still true? November 1?
Thanks!

They announced a year ago what the date would be for this year. I don't see them changing it.

Let's hope they don't - my current plans have me crossing the 100K mark on Nov 4 (and the MM Mark on Nov 13 BTW)

I have just received my latest threshold eUpgrades, dated Nov 3rd ... and they are good until Feb 2018.
