when will CO flight EQMs post to MP account?
Sorry, I'm sure this has been asked a million times but I cannot find the answer.
I plan to book a reservation through United using my MP number, choosing an outbound Continental-operated flight and United-operated return flight. The trip is only two days and the EQM from the outbound flight will bump up my status to Premier Exec. So I am wondering how long it will take for the miles from the CO flight to post to my MP account? If more then two days, I'd rather choose an outbound UA flight so I'll qualify as Premier Exec on the way back. My experience with UA flights is that they post within a day, two at max. Thanks.

In my recent experience, with the vast majority of my miles in M+, and flying CO...
A couple days to a week for the miles to show in CO
When the weekly(ish) sweep occurs, the status upgrades on CO
Then at least a couple weeks, perhaps a monthly sweep, for the status to match back to UA
