Hey everyone!

I've been trying to requalify for United Premier Gold status this year. If you're also on this path, you know how difficult it is get the necessary Premier Qualifying Points and Premier Qualifying Flights before the end of the year. Partner and Star Alliance airlines are particularly tricky, because the calculation depends on flight distance, fare class, airline, and other ticket attributes.

I built a free, simple web app to show how many PQP/PQF you need to qualify for the next tier. Importantly, you can create different scenarios and itineraries that result in different PQP/PQF amounts, so you can pick the scenario that gets you there the fastest.

This was built completely for fun and for personal use, but happy to take feedback and requests for improvement! Right now it's only built for United, but if there's enough interest I could expand this to American/Delta/Alaska.
