I found the site last April in the early morning hours while looking on webflyer. Saw flyertalk somewhere & lurked for a while. Joined FT in May 2001 & my only status was US Silver. Since then, I went to Europe 4 times last year (3 times post Sept. 11).Now US Chairman's & UA Prem Executive. Registered for all kinds of bonuses, secured 2 business class award seats on QF (Rows 16A,B upper deck ) using 95K US miles each for Nov. 2002 travel. Even survived one SIN trip two weeks ago & will go again in 2 weeks! (actually SIN was quite easy for me considering the cost per mile is quite inexpensive!). Always having a nice time on FT & at FT events.
