Thanks for all the pointers, gang. Just pulled off a 40 minute turn around at
IAH. Well, 40 minutes on the sked, but outbound flight got in early, so I even had time to stop by the club. The only hitch was the one ninja recliner who banged my knee.
Looks like it might have been in vain, though. I did this to make Plat for next year specifically so we could be in group 1 on that rare occasion we are in coach. But I see in the new boarding process thread that they are experimenting with, basically, moving Plats to group 2.
