2. It's really secret - even after the announcement, people will disagree on the substance. The announcement will be on November 22.
3. Double MR points for retail gas purchases from chains which purchase from Texas-based refineries.
4. Triple MR points at Billy Bob's (do they still exist?)
That's pretty funny, lol.

An aluminum card would be damned cool, though, on a serious note!

I still want a status program!!

It is becoming harder to throw your business to just one airline, at least in my neck of the woods, since the domestic route structure reductions last year.

It would be cool to have at least some kind of status on a few of them, with no minimums.
