related: with the Marrakesh flight, may have to get a Chase United card and make that happen. -- nm - colin Oct 29, 11:23 2
- The flight is new, during the winter only, and 3 days a week. I hope it sticks, but if it doesn't do well in its first year, no promise it comes back. - ty97 Oct 29, 11:45 1
  - This thread is a year old, but some thoughts on United mileage earning via credit card (including someone recommending the Sapphire card) -- (edited) - ty97 Oct 29, 11:47
oh, a week earlier than expected for this announcement (I figure badness will be in the link) -- nm* - ty97 Oct 29, 11:13
I'm curious if this is more about overall economics or if they're trying to focus on a certain type of flyer group. -- nm* - Max Oct 29, 11:08 3
- A bit of balancing economics, a bit of trying to not have TOO many elites (whatever that means in their definition), a little about credit card spend. - ty97 Oct 29, 11:50
- I have to think at some point they need to make it more restrictive to make it truly have value -- nm - oblique Oct 29, 11:11 1
  - Or maybe if you're facing too much demand for 1st class and decent legroom you should just expand the fleet with more of those features? -- nm - Max Oct 29, 11:17
