I just discovered that, much to my horror, my mileage plus
account balance is now zero. UA has taken thousands of the miles
I've built up over the years as a member of Mileage Plus - without any notice - even in any of the mailings the airline sends me. At times, I was even
a Premier member. I do not recall getting any written or email notice that these
miles were going to disappear. Last year, I
had planned on taking United or their partner airlines to South Africa, Montreal
and Salt Lake City, but unfortunately, the trips were cancelled by the sponsors before I could
make any reservations.
