I have 5 flights left before A list, so for me only a few weeks left..it's taking longer because I booked some of my trips on other carriers, usually I will do 6 flights in 3 weeks..I am also about 1000 miles away from USAirways Silver Pref. Hopefully I will get both around the same time.
Best thing about it will be not buying EBCI anymore...although from what I am hearing on FT, the results are usually about the same.
I will enjoy the flyby lanes too as I glare at the kettles and peons lining up like the stinking, status-less mass they are..especially on mondays!!
