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

The premise of tracking runners, in my opinion, is ridiculous. On the one hand, it is revenue they would not normally have. Second, what about people who make quick trips without knowing what a "run" is or cares about a run. I recently had to go to FLL to sign some papers, and let a seller know I physically exist. I flew SAN-EWR-FLL-EWR-SAN on a red-eye returning 3 hours after I landed in FLL. Is some CO OP nitwit going to sit there and try to figure out if it was a run, or a quick business deal?? I certainly hope not, or CO is grossly overstaffed with people twiddling their thumbs.
