(I got my gold card just 6 weeks after skywards was launched and have had it now since they started, i think this is flagged, tlaking to the FA's on one of the flights and they told me I am flagged as a VVIP where as Gold pax are flagged as VP's) i can only think this is the reason!


However, I find GF the best, I seem to be upgraded EVERYTIME I fly in J to F with them, even if they have seats in J open. This is usally on the BKK-MCT ot BKK-BAH flights when they have skychefs. I think it's due to all the food they have on board and it needs eating. I have been UG'd at check-in in BKK most of the time rather than at the boarding gate.

I cam back from BKK the other week to MCT and there was 6 of us in F ALL upgraded from J and 6 empty seats in J..

How lucky?
How do we know what are we flagged at
I have flow about 60 flights this year and all long haul. Any idea how to find out. Wow you have had a great streak.
