I know this goes beyond the subject, but it does let you know how I feel about things now.
If you're in Paid F, your best bet is CO. CO has the superior domestic F product. I wouldn't even bother wasting your time on a status match. CO treats its Paid F customers pretty well, and they reward your elite-mileage bank for paid F tickets. You'll be elite in no time.

My own reaction: I just dumped all my remaining miles on an F award to Europe (which took two phone calls, two agents, a supervisor, and two phone calls to Lufthansa). I'll be sitting in the First Class Terminal in Frankfurt, raising a glass of single malt to Doug (sorry dude, I don't drink Bud like you do), and thanking him for the memories.
