I got my plat via a status match. Not sure which one it was that got it for me. I didnt mention to them I have a World Elite Mastercard. I did show them my SPG plat status, my National EE status, and my Airline status.

I've been upgraded from a PCAR to a 528i (XCAR) without asking at ATL.

This time at LAX they offered me an upgrade to an XTS, which I declined. I don't really consider an impala to be better than a new C-Class. They tried to get me to take a G550 for $200 per day extra.

The pickup was a mess. Waited 30 minutes for the shuttle, 30 minutes on the shuttle, and another 1hr to get the car when we were actually at the renaissance. This basically means that I can't go to sixt at LAX unless I am on a leisure trip.
