I've never understood this logic. Essentially EVERY NW flight is to/from a hub, where there are a 'ton' of elites. We are all competing against many elites.
What routes you fly and when you fly them also plays a very large role in your upgrade chances. Keep working toward that Gold card.
this makes a lot more sense to me. Flying FROM MSP on Monday morning is different than flying TO MSP on Monday morning.
