Right...when plugging in DL number it shows your status as METAL TYPE - Elite instead of METAL TYPE - Medallion.

I'm assuming the NW IT people just found it easier to add some code that said:

Check DL_status
IF DL_status = PM
then NW_status = Platinum_Elite
IF DL_status = GM
then NW_status = Gold_Elite
IF DL_status = SM
then NW_status = Silver_Elite
IF DL_Status = NONE
then begin
NW_status = NONE
seat_assign_middle = broken_near_lav
seat_assign_window = search(passanger_of_size)
seat_assign_aisle = search(passanger_with_teething_baby)
send_junkmail(passanger_ID);
...
