Elite line question at SNA.
Hello. I have the following question reg. the elite line at SNA.
Are the elite lines airline specific or are they for elites who are flying? Let me explain.
I will be flying from SFO to SNA to meet my mother-in-law and I will then be flying with her to SMF for the family christmas. She hates to fly alone and so I stepped in to give her a flying companion.
We will be flying Southwest (her choice -not mine!) and so ,when I meet her land side to help her check her bags etc. can I , as a UA and NWA gold elite use the elite line even though we will be flying southwest ? (a non elite airline)
If the normal line isn't long then it'll be a non issue. But if it's long ,and being as she's getting on in years and not able to stay on her feet for extended periods of time , it would be nice to "whisk her through"!
Any thoughts?
Happy flying,Tattikat2
