Loyalty Programs
Many American Airlines AAdvantage members who qualified for elite status through late credit card spending may need to wait weeks for confirmation. The airline's qualification period ended on February 28, with points resets occurring in early March. Updates to accounts are processed gradually as credit card statements close.

United Airlines has announced changes to its MileagePlus loyalty program, effective for tickets purchased starting April 2, that tie earning rates to credit card ownership. Members without a United card will earn fewer miles, while cardholders receive higher rewards and additional perks. The move aims to incentivize loyalty through a combination of benefits and reduced earnings for non-card users.
