As an infrequent flyer (leisure traveler) I am bothered by the fact that LH mile expire 3 years from the date that you receive them, but w/UA they never expire as long as you have activity in your account every 3 years.

The RCC did clamp down on *G members traveling in the US on itineraries not part of an "international" trip... however, after a month on that tune, they backed out of the new policy.

I thought that *was* a nice benefit, but no more. LH SENs only get access to domestic RCCs if their domestic segment is part of an itinerary that includes international travel (i.e. the same as UA PE non RCC card holders).

They (UA) tried to do that for about two months, but had to step back. No it is entry again on UA domestic flight segments for all StarGold status holders except their own.
