Hate seeing the numbers roll back to zero.

Back on the treadmill of elite qualification ....again!

I have 3 Asia trips booked in January/February that will net me around 69k PQMs, so it's a good head start on the year.

Plus, getting those redeemable miles before the egregious changes heading our way on March 1

I'm flying to Germany in January, but bought the ticket in December. Do the PQD get added when I bought the ticket, or when I fly?

When you fly. Many things can change between booking and travel date (says someone who has rebooked more trips than I care to remember ....)

seeing mine reset for UA, DL and AS definitely bothered me more this year than just watching UA reset to 0 in years past. 2015 will be a year where i probably only drive the AS account up to some meaningful level of status.

I'm curious how this will affect PQD that have not already posted. I met the PQM for Platinum last year but was waiting on some Copa "compiled monthly" PQD to post to get past the threshold. I had expected the Copa PQD to show up on December 31, but they still are missing. Since all the counters have reset, I wonder if United will properly recognize that I qualified for Platinum last year once the Copa PQD do post.

Your 2014 numbers are still available on mystatus.united.com

Was Sisyphus the first FF / elite seeker?
Thanks for the link! I was going nuts trying to figure out my final PQM!

Anyone else who is going to have their status drop in 2015 notice a glitch on the tracking site where it says:

Congratulations, you've earned Premier Silver status for 2015.

Enjoy your 2015 Premier Gold status, with all the benefits and services that come with it.

Both my wife and I are dropping a level and have the same inconsistency on mystatus.

Clicking on the info "i" for PQD produces this now:
YTD Premier qualifying dollars

Premier qualifying dollars (PQD) include spending on flights operated by United, United Express and Copa Airlines, as well as flights operated by Star Alliance and MileagePlus partner airlines when issued on a United ticket (ticket number starting with “016”). You can also earn PQD for Economy Plus® purchases.
Is that the same as it was before?

Because they are not giving full PQD credit for some codeshare flights (at least some lufthansa flights), even bought as 016, I'm surprised they don't qualify this statement a bit more.

Credited when you fly, on the date of the scheduled departure of each segment

The Silver is what you earned for 2015. The Gold is what you are now and will remain until end of January when you drop to Silver. Yes, little confusing but they are different fields, One is earned and one is current.
