To anyone and everyone:
NW has been handing out to some Gold members of the hotel programs, a 3 month trial Elite status if you were to fly with them 2X by 6/3001,you would be Silver till 2/28/02 and 4X by 6/3001, you would be Gold til 2/28/02.
They have assigned me a separate new NW account # that I can combine with my existing one. Supposedly, the new account has already been pre-set to Silver status.
Although I will not be giving out that account #, there is a reference code at the bottom of my letter. It is:
GNWP SILVER.
If it works in boosting anyone to Silver w/o the corresponding new Account #, then I will be glad.
Good luck!
