Wow, you are right - what if some glitch came along and snapped up 500 of my EQM's and left me in non-elite ranks for another long week?

It's all about perspective, lol.

Thanks everyone for pointing out what I was suspecting anyway - Co has a few glitches to work out in how the information is presented on the site.


I'm just happy to be regaining my status. I just finished booking another RT and this time it was only $198, but it tried to stick me in my least favorite seat: 24A.

Argggghhhhhh!

So I took an earlier flight to catch a "C" seat.

Oh, and it does appear that Continental is filling middle seats from front to back with no regard to Elites. These last few weeks, when not paying for "F", I've been grabbing rear aisle seats and been blessed with an empty seat next to me.

That really comes in handy when we get stuck in a holding pattern, then land somewhere else to refuel, then back up into a holding pattern before landing almost six hours after boarding the flight.
