Yes StarWorld,, I did credit my CO account. I did not want to do this exactly for the reason you stated. Unfortunately if i did not put my CO number, then the agent was going to charge me for the bags. (since I would no longer be *Gold). At least thats what he told me. I did show him my *G card. He said you have to input the number for removing luggage charges.
Thanks all. After 4 different agents, I got one good OPSC agent, who is now going to post my original routing miles. she said, the DEQM's will post when the DEQM's run as usual. Of course, they will delete the miles earned by flying US-air on this itinerary.
