Status Change - Timing
I just reached *A Gold. Does anyone know how long it takes to get your *A Gold cards and updated CO luggage tags?
Another question, is that if I hit 75k for the year, does that get me any additional benefits or is that only when you are Platinum on CO/UA?
Thanks!

75k gets you plat on CO. 4-6 weeks for gold elite package and PE package.

It might work for LH, AC and other *A clubs, but many want to 'swipe' a card.

I was surprised at the unexpected outbreak of common sense.

Other airlines ask for your card out of "common sense" by the way - there have been plenty of people who gained access to lounges in the past with expired credentials because on a large number of airlines, the status is "frozen" at the time of booking unless the FF # is updated.
Keeps more seats available for the rest of us
