Inappropriate?I was a Unted Global Services cusotmer back when I flew way too much (and worked for a big company). There is only one way to become a United Global Service customer -- spend a lot of money on flights. Honest. This level of United's frequent traveler program is awarded based entirely on how much revenue (and probably profit) you generate for United.
I was certainly disappointed when I stopped qualifying for Global Services, but my wife reminded me that the reason I had stopped qualifying was that I was actually home with my family. That seemed like a fair trade once I thought it through!
I’m happy not to travel as much anymore

Inappropriate?yep. i'm global services now and it is a two-edged sword. they finally treat you like a human...but it means you are travelling too much.
get 1k status and spend lots of money...that is the key. if you have to travel a lot...it is wonderful

Inappropriate?I just qualified for 2008 with 2007 stats of $60k ticket fees, 260k in qualifying miles and 110 qualifying segments. I'm also a 1 mil. mile flier and have been a 1k member for the past 10+ years. I equate attaining Global Services to what retirement must be like. You should enjoy it, but you're probably too old, tired, cynical, grouchy and tainted to do so. Other than that, I can't wait :-P

Inappropriate?well i successfully stayed home enough last year to not end up in global services for 08. I'm 1k. perhaps my goal this year should be to get down to premier exec!

Inappropriate?I own a travel agency in Thailand, and understanding how different airlines work with regards to milage programs made me a free agent! I use to swear by United when flying Transpacific, but now I fly all over the place so I am not committed to any one airline.
Now for me price is my partner as long as I can bear the layover connections.
I’m confident
