I’m new to Flyertalk, but I’ve been a OP member since ’88. I’ve flirted with elite status a couple of times and even made Silver in 2001-2002 on a fly twice before some date deal. I started a new job in June and I’m making a lot of short hops (47 segments in four months.) I’ll go from nothing to Gold by the end of the year and I’m toying with a mileage run or two to get to Platinum. I’m wondering, though, if Continental tracks runners, logs it in their profile, and treats them differently. It doesn’t seem that it would be that hard for them to do and it could be used against someone in all kinds of ways.

TIA
