Chicago’s hometown airline is making a play for the loyalty customers of competing airlines. According to Crain’s, a new campaign launched by United Airlines is trying to get travelers to switch to its Mileage Plus program and promises they can keep their frequent-flyer status if they move. United will match a flyer’s status for 120-days, and if the traveler books enough travel during that time, they keep their status level. United hopes to capitalize on a wave of popularity and beefed-up flight schedule. The airline’s CEO recently said United has made double-digit market share gains in Chicago bookings.
