DYKWIA??!!

All kidding aside, this has been one of my biggest gripes - the cluster that the checkin, security, and boarding lines have become. These _WERE NOT_ broken before 3/3... all changes made by Continental and it's messed up.

I have flown pm Continental out of EWR enough times that I learned how the "all elites are elite" mentality worked. ORD was bad enough already ... but adding silvers (and all credit card holders) to the 1K / *G security ... argh.

This is my first week flying as a new AA ExPlat ... I think I'll clear F on my outbound to DFW, but doesn't look good for my return. Seat selection is pretty bad, full flights, and I'm already worried I will miss E+.

I'll send back a comparison when my trip is over ... not expecting grass to be greener ... just hoping there is grass, as compared to the dirt road that the new UA has become.
