1K in 2 weeks
From scratch! Is this possible? I will test the limits by flying 6 back to back with only 3 days off between the first 3 and second 3 trips between ord and hkg.
Just sick of not being a 1k for 3 years and being treated like crap from UAL. All trips in coach $800 per leg.
$5,000 buys 1K status.

Quite honestly I am going on this. I have my tickets in hand and call me crazy but I will do it. The UA ticket agent called the Tribune and the Trib called me. Mark my words I will be on 895 on the 17th until the 25th.
I look at it like this, If I do it quick all my other trips after June will be double double double miles and maybe UAL will flip me an upgrade...LOL

upgrademe: Ummm ... I think he will be ... uh... "Sprinting" to 1K.
HarryKranick: You've posted this under the Sprint board, which is for things relating to Sprint phone service. Good luck with your quest.

Even if he uses the Sprint phone card a lot, I don't think it will be possible to get an upgrade on UAL using WorldPerks miles http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif
