Note: 2011 elite status and benefits, including the program details below, will be extended until our system conversion date in 2012. The benefits and features of the 2012 MileagePlus program take effect late at that time.
When you earn 50,000 Elite Qualifying Miles (EQM) or 60 Elite Qualifying Segments (EQS) on United in a calendar year, you attain Premier Executive® status in the United MileagePlus® program. Your qualifying, paid flight miles earned on Star Alliance® member flights also count toward elite status.
Premier Executive status
entitles you to an enhanced level of service and a number of exclusive
rewards, including mileage bonuses and Star Alliance Gold benefits.
As a Premier
Executive member, you are entitled to special privileges that may include
complimentary or discounted upgrades. In 2011, you will also have the potential to earn unlimited Regional Upgrades.
