Does MM status effect waitlists?
Firstly would just like to say hello to you all. I have been reading this forum for years and have gained a lot of knowledge from it but until now had not got around to posting and thought it was time that I did. I am a 1K and have just clocked up my millionth mile and am wondering if being a million miler actually has any effect on upgrade waitlists?

Hi SWB
AFAIK, MM status does not have an effect on waitlist priority. It is printed on the manifest, so likely does give higher meal priority.
Enjoy the 3 extra SWUs that you'll received soon.^

Congratulations!!!
As far as I can tell, MM has no impact on the waitlist status.
As Wimpy says, I have been given first choice of meal selection, and also occasionally samples of International F wine selection while traveling in international C.

Depending on the waitlist, status will get you a PA vs the "standard" PB. PA's should in theory be worked first.
The million miler status is just 1P for life. Your current 1k status trumps 1P.
