I'll call Continental next but it seems like others are getting matched so what am I doing wrong? I have a DFW-FRA flight, DFW-NRT flight and DFW-ICN flights coming up in the next 4 months and can meet any challenges but what do I need to say or who do I email to get them to match the status? I've already flown past the 100K mark this year (slow for some of you all but a lot for me )

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
