You mentioned that you utilized the First Class/Elite security checkpoint entrance at DEN. What were the qualifications required to use this entrance:
- a FC ticket, even if upgraded, vs purchased ?
- flash an elite status card; presumably UA would qualify, but what about AS MVP or MVP Gold ?</font>
Good question. A sign posted at the entrance to the "Express Line" authorized various levels of United elite flyers, but didn't indicate any other airlines that I recall. I proceeded anyway and presented my boarding pass showing a First Class seat on Alaska's flight up to Seattle. I was surprised when the agent working the line indicated that he needed to see something indicating my elite status, i.e. simply traveling in First was not enough. Good thing I had my MVP Gold card!
