I was regualrly flying One Pass and Continental since 1981. When Larry Kellner a few years back told me that lifetime status was just "wallet candy" and that he was a lifetime gold on American, I simply stopped flying Continental and switched to Delta so that in my last 10-15 years of business flying I would easily hit the million mark and get lifetime there. I had about 3 million total miles on CO, so I should have well over 1 million BIS on CO now. I flew CO all those years it operated like US Air does now.
