Am I correct in assuming that there are no complimentary upgrades available for skymiles medallion members on Continental?
Thanks in advance.
Actually EUA works just fine for some DL elites....CO does recognize NW status and processes our EUA as if we were CO elites....however I have recently heard as part of the breakup we (NW) elites are no longer exempt from the baggage fees by status (No you wont receive 100% EQM nor segment credit for some fare codes)
PS EUA %'s on CO are much lower than on NWA - they fly with much smaller F cabins and use ERJ's on some fairly long routes plus they do a decent job of selling F seats (they've done a terrific job of keeping their F cabin whole while most airlines have cut back over the years)...while I'm usually at 99% on NWA I'm more like 50% on CO as a NWA Gold....but with that said their F does blow away DL's F
