I guess the CO fans are getting tired of the Pecan Delights for dessert lol.
Interesting, I flew EWR-DEN tonight in F (upgraded), I am flying greyhound-with-wings TED to DFW tomorrow and then I am flying CO DFW-IAH-PHX (upgarded all legs) on Wednesday. My upgrade success this year as a plat based in EWR is over 70%. Oh wait, my EUA for my PHX-EWR leg on Sunday just came in.... hmmmm, thats odd. I am flying in F for every leg of my trip on CO. I guess upgrades on CO do "come through" every now and then. I just hope than for my leg on TED I dont sit next to a shirtless alcoholic.
