Let us know how that goes. I'm tempted to leave it alone because the aggravation doesn't seem worth it to me, but I'm sure someone could convince me otherwise.

105 flights - 80% in fare class D or P (hardly any J). I mostly fly domestic between IAH and EWR with 3 or 4 flights to Europe in paid business.

Wow, bit of a bloodbath today. I'm surprised by some of the numbers that failed to requalify.

$61,891 PQP based out of CLE. Highest spend yet and GS since 2019. Not invited back.

Dropped to 1K after 7 years but expected as I only had about 28k PQP on united metal out of LHR. It was of course all Polaris but I haven’t returned to 50k since pre-pandemic (moved to LON from NYC in 2022) so understandable.

I am shocked at the discrepancy between some of the new quals vs requals with some high numbers though.

I have no idea how you can ask them to reconsider their decision?

Similar here. GS since 2016. Downgraded to 1K and baffled. LAX and DEN based with 82K PQP, 112 PQS. Travel to Europe and domestically. 95% UA metal

Shocked
 
58.8 PQPs
67 PQFs
all UA metal
SFO

15 years GS non-stop
2million miler

didn’t requal.

HoyaSFOIAD Jan 12, 2024 12:50 pm

Stunned I did NOT make it.

75k PQP (net of bonuses, all UA metal). Highest spend ever.
76 segments
8 year GS
million miler
IAD based.

Wrote in for a re-evaluation, if I don’t get it I am officially a free agent with a slight bias against United.

myb821 Jan 12, 2024 12:55 pm

Stunned my FIL didn't make it.

Long time GS at least 5+ years
3.3M Miler
57,430 PQP
83 PQF
EWR based

Not sure exact breakdown of UA v non but vast vast majority UA.

Will be requesting review.

In 2023 PQP 76,770 with 63,466 PQP on United metal. 126 segments with 142,529 odometer air miles as I progress towards 4MM. Domestic travel is unfortunately always booked in coach with cheap tickets due to company policies. However overseas always is in Polaris.

Still no word for me about GS for 2024.

Did not get GS for 2024. Quite surprised.

sfonorth Jan 12, 2024 1:03 pm

Did not get GS for 2024. Based in SFO, GS last year with 57,355 PQP and 55 segments all on UA metal; In 2023, PQP 56,179, 85 segments. 2.3 million miler

They seemed to have become super stingy and raised the threshold exceptionally high for GS this year.

myb821 Jan 12, 2024 1:09 pm

I am on a global services rep who is claiming that there is some sort of GS challenge that eligible GS were pre registered for but doesn't know the details and is trying to find them. So Bizarre
