Full fare tickets only sounds rather unlike usual DC generosity. Are some of these routes likely to be cut now that mainline seems to be using more ERJ's?
OT: Has Jenna Rowley left bmi? She used to be Diamond Club manager.

Since you already get "double" (ie 2x) miles with C,D,J,Y, will this mean you get 4x (double what you would otherwise have received), therefore 4800 miles for a return?

Thanks for spotting my schoolboy error. My previous post is corrected now to reflect the correct figure.

I just checked back in my email and Jenna turned into Keeley in mid November.
