I have a bunch of United PlusPoints that are due to expire, so I'm upgrading a few lucky listeners.  If you have a United flight in January or February and there's upgrade inventory, shoot me a note via e-mail or DM.  But first, make sure you have United Expert Mode enabled and then check to see what upgrade inventory looks like on your flight.  If an upgrade is available or looks likely, let me know and I'll try to upgrade you.

Richard and I are answering a listener question about year-end status challenges and we're also discussing airports-line-tsa-precheck.html"> a really bad take on CLEAR, the service that helps you bypass the line at the airport.

Don't forget that you can leave us a voicemail or text us at (571) 293-6659‬. Listen for your question on a future show!

Shoot us an e-mail (ed@pizzainmotion.com) or you can tweet me and Richard if you have questions.

And, you can also find me on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram and ask your question there.

If you enjoy the podcast, I hope you’ll take a moment to leave us a rating. That helps us grow our audience!
