Whichever airline just made negative changes to their Frequent Flyer program.

At first, it was UA when 1Ks received 2003 System Wide Upgrades that required a higher minimum international fare basis then previously.

Then DL dropped the hammer on SkyMiles, so that forum went incandecent.

BA decided if you don't pay enough, you won't earn enough, so those folks tossed their tea in the Thames in disgust (it just wouldn't be British to throw a tantrum, so they played it low-key).

Next up, AS decided to restrict time-of-ticketing free First Class upgrades to only the higher fares. So a riot broke out there as AS is HQ'd in SEA and god knows we love a good riot in SEA. But being SEA, it was a restrained riot.

Now CO has decided to follow DL's lead and the firestorm has spread from DL to CO, though this might be because the forums are right next to each other. Randy should have put in better "firewalls". <duck>

I expect Minnesota to experience their first seismic event in a few weeks when NW aligns itself with DL and CO and torques off the Worldperks members.
