If Continental want to participate in blocking, I will no longer credit my miles to Co.
Since both airlines want to play *net blocking, I will choose the one give me SWUs.
If you've already subscribed to the *Net blocking, you may just want to go ahead and leave.
There are plenty of examples of where people are not seeing blocking and the instances where people are having issues with availability is not blocking, but other variables at play.
I'm realizing the ANA tool is causing more issues than benefits at this point as everyone believes it is gospel. Folks, it is possible for anything to give you bad results. Prior to CO, prior to UA's starnet blocking, there were a few times when ANA would say something was available and UA and BD couldn't see it. Things happen and to assume that CO is blocking due to a single data point is very short-sighted.
