General members? Would you not have status if you flew that much?
I assume that includes the 1P or 1K bonus, and you really only flew half of that?
Very impressive! ^
Fine, you got me!
(even though, it is not THAT unrealistic)

Sounds like a humorous reply to BJ's UGS full-fare miles thread.
Even as a 1K I don't think I managed to find any L fares this year.

L fares rule!!
I just did ORD-LGA-ORD this weekend for $148 in L, and my E+ seat was exactly the same as people who paid higher economy fares!! Service was the same too!! Wow!!!

No L fares in 2006 for me, but I did have quite a bit of T action.
All of my planned travel in 2007 is booked into L so far, though:
RIC-ORD-SEA-SFO-DEN, COS-DEN-ORD-RIC, January 11-14
RIC-IAD-ORD-ATL-ORD-IAD-RIC, January 27
I was able to confirm upgrades to First and Business for the entire RIC-ORD-SEA-SFO-DEN using one confirmed regional. I am definitely on the lookout for more L in 2007! ^

I was surprised to find only 1 L fare this year. Mostly S/T with two K fares.

Only one: SFO-LAX (r/t $108) during the LA auto show weekend. Didn't even know L fares were bookable (thought they were some sort of consolidator or TA fare).
Since the airfare was so low, I splurged on a 1-day Hertz prestige rental.

2 RTs to lovely DAY
3 RTs to LAX, in one day, to cash in on the fly 3, get one free promo.
I will never do that again
