Not just elite status, but probably based on money spent on CO recently. So, if you have no miles and no posts, don't expect to get in the simulators.
My flying habits are certainly not up to the snuff of the rest of the board, so I guess a high post count and a winning personality will have to get me into the sim.

There's always the chance that your winning charm will get you a simulator ticket trade at the party the night before, if they don't give it to you up front. Last year there was some tour trading going on, and amazingly, some people were wanting to trade their simulator tickets for something else.
I for one would love to see Scott contact us F/As individually through flyertalk, and after verifying our identity, offering us a paid or non-paid day to officially represent CO as F/As at the DO... at least that'd be the easy way for me to attend
ahem...in CO Insider terms...don't hold your breath LukeSkywaiter.
For those who have not attended the previous DOs and to those CO employees who're new to this forum:
I have a question? What the heck is a DO? I have figured out that it is some kind of get together that is apparently at least somewhat sponsored by Continental. But, what does it stand for? I have searched and cannot find the answer.

A DO is a get together of FlyerTalkers.
The term just evolved, likley - just DO it - meaning just DO get together.

A "do" is a somewhat archaic slang term that your mom or grandmother probably used on occasion signifying a big party. Here's the definition from the on-line dictionary:
"Informal An entertainment; a party: attended a big do at the embassy."
