Qualified for 1K on 9/14. Received my 1K kit with card valid through 1/2018 today. Came with 10 drink vouchers also valid through 1/31/18. Included two plastic luggage tags.

This will be an interesting year for me; first year that I've dropped in status (Plat to Gold) other than my single year as a 1K. So at what point does UA give up on me and send a Gold kit, or will they wait until all possible chance to accomplish Plat have passed (post-1/1/17)?

Qualified for Gold around September 1st. Received the 2017 kit about a month later in early October. The luggage tags are the same little ones from this year. Maybe 1Ks get bigger ones.

They didn't last year. I'm curious because I am no longer Premier 1K and luggage tags are (IMO) an effective gauge across airlines about how much they care about elites!!!

I don't even get that email that I seem to remember getting when I qualified for 1K through the year.
