One thing to keep in mind is that this is the time of yrear when there are the most Plats as some folks mad eit for the first time in 2005 while others are leftovers from 2004. After March 1, I think things get back to normal... Good luck
Agreed that she should trump me as she's NW and I'm CO, but the issue here is that I am being processed after Golds and Silvers apparently due to my fare class (K), despite the fact that she bought the EXACT SAME route at the EXACT SAME fare class.
