I have chosen not to pursue it for 2004. First off, my business travel has decreased tremendously this year as well as my salary so I have stopped mileage run trips as I have no budget for them. When I do travel, I have to look for the best price. Continental was my choice as it offered the most nonstops from EWR of any other carrier. They also were very generous with their upgrades and bonus opportunities. Now, it's a whole different story. Moreover, with JetBlue at JFK, I find B6 much less expensive to fly (especially to the west coast) and much more comfortable in coach. It's as easy for me to get to JFK as it is to EWR. On CO, I rarely get upgraded. So what's the point?
