Days for points to post

I am wondering how long does it take for points to post? It's usually 3 days for my last 30 trips, but the YYZ-HNL trip I was just on, it's been 4 days (In case you are curious, there is something about the mess the CP agent created for me in another post). This is critical to me for getting EP. I will be EP by the time I complete my YVR-YYZ next Monday (Nov 22).

The YYZ-HNL-YYZ trip is just a disaster in terms of check in agent. First, YYZ check in agent screw up by telling me my CPlus number is not in there while it is, she spend 5 minutes trying to override the system... this is what worried me, did she do something?? although the Cplus number is on the boarding pass, I will not be assured until they post.

Then on the return trip, check in agent at HNL took 10 minutes to check me in trying to figure out what to do with the Black stickers. Turns out he printed two boarding pass??? put the sticker on one of them and kept it at the check in counter. Took him 10 minutes, he said the system were slow, but I see other agent checking in passenger in less than 2 mins... "He just doesn't know what to do!"

I am planning to use the "guarantee award seats" benefit to claim two award seats to HKG which will save me over $10000 for 2 J seats.

If the points are in fact missing, I then have to sent it in which I am sure will be past christmas before I get the points back, which means I cannot use that benefit.
If this situation does becomes a reality, will the EP desk be able to do something about this for me?

I have planned all my trips carefully this year so that I will make EP by the end of Nov and be able to claim the tickets soon after. I even took a couple of webspecials to make sure I will make EP by the end of the month.

If CP does screw this up which in turns screw up my christmas plans, I will seriously consider switching to AC.

Regards,
Empress
