Received the first email "It's been a hard week...." on July 1. Have not seen the second email come through yet to actually claim 30K miles.
6/28 - EWR - LAX cancelled. Attempted standby for other flights on 6/28, always just out of reach of confirmed seats
- (avg. standby #: 8 out of 80 people - 1K but bought T class ticket.
- Their system was so overloaded it randomly booted me off of standby for a few flights. Needed to be manually added back on by GA.
6/29 - Found confirmed seats for first EWR-LAX flight of day
7/1 - Received 30K email
7/4 - Return flight LAX-EWR (landed early, but taxi to gate was 1.5 hours late due to EWR ground stop/no gates).
