I would have used them, although maybe only one-out-of-ten flights!
I have plenty accumulated over the past couple years, since so rarely have any reason to give them out. Always have them on hand in side pocket of headphones case.

Might as as well just cut it across the board, now.
Yes there is a physical membership card - I'm guessing not photographed due to MP number being displayed. They slightly updated the visual for this year on the card.

Just got the GS charger as well. I’m curious what the 1K kits will have in place of the Global Services logo. Just a standard United logo?

I predict a non-wireless charger, and a "Polaris Blue" baggage wrap.

Received the status kit yesterday - wireless charger and baby blue luggage wrap. Only one sheet of drink tickets - that expire 1/31/2022?

Got mine. Had drink certs, blue baggage handle, and new faux metal looking 1K card and bag tags.

I got my annual 1K kit in the mail today (~$32K PQD, ~170K PQM in 2019). Indeed, it included a wireless charger. Looks to be a basic made-in-China 5-watt Qi charger with minimalist branding. Given the slow charge speed I don't think I'll use it much. It's a nice gift but I think I would have preferred drink coasters again.

Also, interestingly, they included a sky-blue handle wrap. Are we moving away from yellow? Or differentiating 1Ks from GS maybe?



The customary drink coupons were included as well. And the new MP membership card and bag tags are reflective silver.

Are MM companion 1K's also receiving the kit, or will I need to request a second blue handle wrap separately for Mrs tarheelnj?

Oh thank goodness for the tags not being city-branded like GS!
