Does UA MP offer a program similiar to the "challenge" of AA?
I have a business trip HNL-MCO (via DEN) in Oct that will yield me close to 10K BIS miles. Does UA MP offer a "challenge" similair to AA's one to fast track to Elite status? If they do, please let me know who to contact in regards to registering for this. If I can fast track with another 5K miles, I will do a mileage run and be set for next year as I have several business trips already planned for next year. My company books corporately on UA.
Let me know FT'ers. Thanks, FlyboyHNL |

Let me know FT'ers. Thanks, FlyboyHNL The Mileage Plus Elite Status Match Program* will match the elite status you hold with a participating competitive airline, up to Premier Executive (1P). This program is available to new or existing members, provided you have not previously received a status match. Just print, complete and fax this form, along with documentation showing your elite status on another airline carrier to the Mileage Plus Customer Service <snip> |
I have never seen a UA challenge, I have seen a status match though.

Correct. It is not a challenge, it's a match. The match requires a certain amount of miles to be flown within a given timeframe to maintain the status which was offered by UA. Once that threshold has been crossed, status will not expire until the end of the program year.

*Rules and Restrictions may apply. You will receive elite matched status in Mileage Plus for a 90 day period, or thru December 31, 2009 whichever is sooner. During this 90 day period, you must complete a specific amount of paid qualifying miles on United, United Express or Ted flights to retain the elevated status. The specific amounts of paid qualifying miles or segments are as follows: Premier/2P = 7,500 Flight Miles OR 10 Flight Segments Premier Executive/1P = 15,000 Flight Miles OR 18 Flight Segments |

Might be some useful info here (although the first post seems a bit dated):
