. Over the last 18 months, the One Pass Frequent Flyer Program at Continental and the "so called" benefits with United have, in our opinion, gone tremendously downhill
Welcome to FT!
BUT, What are you talking about? Benefits such as economy plus? upgrade reciprocity? CO's program has been diluted significantly with CO (not UA's) policies. Hopefully CO will be saved by United....
And incidentally, I think they should switch to a more flexible reward plan for the 75k+ elites.
They can do "Elite choice points" and you get 4 when you hit 75k, and 24 when you hit 100k.
2 points/CR-1, 4 per SWU(6 points for a SWU valid on all fares...), 1 = RCC onetime pass, 8=1 year/RCC, 16 points = premier nomination, stuff like that....
And another 4 points for every 25k you get above 100k. That would allow people to concentrate the benefits that apply to their flying patterns.
