According to the new system I would have earned 77k points in 2010, leaving me well short of the 110k needed for CP.
The CP was the main reason that Southwest was my preferred carrier.
Time to look elsewhere.
Unless I misread something, you'd still be a CP if you hit 100 segments. Not sure if you qualified for your CP via segments or points, though.
