Last Saturday EWR - used Elite credential line and then cut to scanner on left instead of standing behind much longer line of Elites piled up behind one machine - an obvious case where Elite refers to # of miles/segments flown rather than elite in terms of brain power. I guess they wanted to use the "Elite Scanner".
