United Premier 2003
Hey everyone, It looks like by the end of the year I will have 24 segments on United.
I was wondering anyone know if United will give me premier status for that? I know its short but any buzz on if United is lowering requirements to keep flyers for 2003 because of all the things going on in United.
Thanks for the help

You'd be better off asking this question in the United forum.
As I posted here, United has said that they will not stray from the stated rules this year (as they've done the last couple of years).
If you have particularly high revenue associated with your 24 segments, you might call United and ask.
However, don't expect United to simply say "close enough." After all, Premier requires 25,000 miles or 30 segments, not 25 segments.
Do you have any upcoming travel this month? Could you add segments (e.g. flying IAD-ORD-DFW-DEN-PHX-DEN-DFW-ORD-IAD instead of IAD-PHX-IAD would get you six extra segments for likely the same fare plus extra airport taxes)?

Gleff is correct. If you need additional info please start a new thread in the United board.
