it's actually quite nice here in syd (22 degrees C). but who abandon hope of getting credit in more than 1 program? all of my intercontenetals are in aadvantage except my ba flight to the us, but i still entered my ba, cx, and la numbers in assorted flights. i was going to qualify for platinum, but not even come close to exec, as i will bve finishing qualifying for nw & us gold the rest of the year, so i figured what the hell. it's obvious that most of the people you speak to on the phone DON'T know the rules, so odds are the folks that do the posting, don't know them either.

after my first three flights, which i flew ba, and had my number extracted from the record, but5 yet the flights posted in my aa account, i decided to work everyone's (including mine) last nerve, and insert ff numbers at check-in. so far i have two glitches in my record and the both occured on aa, when after three attempts, i could not get the agent to print the appropriate ba and cx numbers on my flights. upon my return i will have these deleted from my aa account, as not only did i specify at check-in, i also followed up with a phone call to the plat desk. cx was the best about this, as the correct number showed up on each of my 10 boarding passes. qf was a little hairy, insisting i couldn't do this. in fact, i had to go to 4 people before one flight to get this done.

now we'll see what happens when the all the flights finally post. everything that has posted from cx so far has been correct. qf probably won't show up for some time.
