TravelScholar Been there many times in your situation. I know it's no consolation, but I'd recommend you use your status to take one NW trip and see if there is any difference. Many CO members fly exclusively on NW using their CO elite upgrade benefits due to the fact NW is a bit more liberal with their upgrades. Just one suggestion before you write them off completely.
