I have the UMPE card, not the Club Card. I just got my BP for a flight tomorrow and it says Premier Access. A glitch? Hope I didn’t mistakenly pay for some stupid upgrade.

What can I expect? Priority line for luggage and priority boarding I’m sure. But anything else?

Priority tags on the luggage (usually comes out first), in some airports there's a special security line (if you don't have TSA pre).

Nice. Any idea why I was granted the access? Definitely not from miles flown.

Having the Mileage Plus Explorer card gets you Premier Access.

Just had it 2 days ago. I think on the Explorer card it only means Priority Boarding, though.
