    United says they will make an additional $300M from enhancements/updates to MileagePlus.

    Does anyone have any indication what this means?

    [*][B]Commercial Enhancements: [/B]Improvements across the commercial organization will drive approximately $1.5 billion of value through increased customer segmentation, updates to its MileagePlus program and modifications to its revenue management system.
