And why would you get an email BEFORE you pass the mark? Be happy if you get one after. I never got anything except my new card in the mail the following January that said MM on it.

now that I have it, it seems to be worth less and less with every passing day! so much for 30+ years of blind loyalty.

Just hit 3 Million on Wednesday, and another three of my Business partners are at 1 Million each on United (two of the are over 2 Million on AA using the old "count-everything" method).

Because at least three people (myself included) have reported getting e-mails recently within 5,000-20,000 miles of hitting 1,000,000. I got mine about a week before my MM flight.

I've been flying mostly United since 1989. Today, picked up my 1MM welcome packet in the mail.

The kit consists of new 2013 luggage tags and ID endorsed with "1 Million Miler", a 2013 welcome to 1k brochure, 10 drink chits expiring January 31, 2014, and an acrylic photo frame thing that I can put a wallet size photo in. The 1k welcome stuff is strange since I have had 1k for several years but haven't qualified for 2014 yet.

Most of the content in the packet is a repeat of the 1k stuff from the start of year. The drink chits are welcome, 10 coupons don't last all year flying flying 2+ segments a week on 50 seat, all economy RJs.

Would have been nice to get an autographed chart or something but as noted above, remarking on a customer hitting 1MM miles on a 323 mile express flight is not a service that United has contracted for with its regional partners.

Crossed 1MM threshold this past Saturday, on the way back from PDX to JFK (via SFO). Requested the flight plan and got the entire package. Had "champagne" onboard the p.s. flight.
