No, but you get to keep current status through end of January 2024 :)

Gift just arrived for current GS with just over $50K PQP so far this year (every single ticket is fully refundable front cabin, mostly premium transcon & transatlantic flights).

Also received today…
 
GS, 71k PQP, not a MM, mostly trans-pacific routes, Denver based. Nice gesture!

No PQD

PQDs were done away with in 2019. There are only PQPs…if you have 100K in PQP then you have been hammering this year

GS (9 years running) - also received. Nice gesture, last year was an “Away” bag, but to be honest I have NO clue if this is GS related. It says “one of our most dedicated Mileage Plus Members”. Hopefully it’s an indicator for 2024 🙏

Has anyone gotten a gift box from United in the mail? I just got a large one with a video message (pretty slick, actually), branded ear buds, and a very nice travel mug that you can charge to actively heat your beverage.

I got one and looked up the stuff. The retail price of the mug and ear buds is over $400...

Haven’t gotten anything since the globe a few years ago. GS for over 10 years and MM. 51k pqp so far this year

bostonpilot Nov 15, 2023 7:06 am

Nothing for me yet either......GS with 75k pqp so far this year

WVmike Nov 15, 2023 9:43 am

I received mine this past weekend. Currently ~$80K spend and 110 segments. Have been GS for 12 consecutive years. I think it is a very nice touch and well appreciated.

vonroach Nov 15, 2023 1:19 pm

I got one, too. GS for about 18 years running, 1.8 million lifetime miles (I am too old to get that last 200k)

Has anyone tried to jailbreak the video card an use it as a small epad?

It was a nice gesture.

akhibhag Nov 15, 2023 7:27 pm

Nothing for me yet. GS for 7 years and 60K in PQP already this year.

avi8tir Nov 15, 2023 7:31 pm

I really appreciate the gesture.... but I wish they had taken the $$$ and invested it in the shoe leather short rib I was served NRT-LAX on saturday. :)

ohstewardess Nov 16, 2023 7:54 am

Been GS for 12 years. 80K pqd all UA metal. 99% paid F or biz. Cusp of 2M miler. Got nothing. Neither did 4 Gs friends.
