Precisely what I've been thinking... I'm 3800 short of requalifying for GP in '06. Is it really worth it? I have (at this point) no reason to fly for travel in the fourth quarter, so it would have to be on a MR. If all is going to be on RJs, we get the exit row as a preferred anyway. Why bother being anything higher than SP if you aren't going to be flying on mainline?
