Quite a difference in my book...
I just checked my SkyMiles account and, of course, it hasn't settled yet (I miss the old days when it settled as soon as your boarding pass was scanned, but that was a long time ago, before they enhanced the back end technology to the 1960s - I'm pretty sure Gladys keypunches every transaction now for processing by their spiffy new, IBM 7090). I'll report back when it does settle sometime next week.
