Looks like with the USAir/United split, I'm going to be about 2k EQM short of even getting silver on United for next year.
Any obvious avenues of getting that last 2k that I'm missing? I have the United Explorer card but it doesn't offer EQM for spend, looks like they aren't running any specials for purchasing EQMs. I've read about booking a fully refundable fare and purchasing the mileage accelerator and then cancelling but I'm not quite sure how that works and it seems like it'd be about 12c/mile which probably isn't worth it just to get Silver.
I'd love a manufactured spend way to get this.
Thanks,
Mike
