As a 2MM I had a paid J cabin fare domestic -> International at YYZ and I never got a ride...
What the Conceirge told me ....guess it is a lottery. Your number has just not come up yet. Frankly it is nice but nothing to get bent out of shape over.

This is only made available to top tier members traveling on a paid buz fare, mine was a z or p fare.
The anecdotes in this thread would contradict that completely. There have been people with no status transported by limo, and people on upgrades.

I was told it was for VIPs, and if there are no VIPs, they'll give other people rides, time permitting.

No mention of fare classes or SEs.

And no one has given an example that contradicts that

YEP. Didn't take long LOL

What kind of potentate is a SE MM?
Powerful, pitiless and armed to the teeth. He/She's a kind of king/queen the world has never known before. His/Her realm is raw capital, his/her conquests emerging markets, his/her prayers profits, his/her borders limitless, his/her weapons nuclear. To even try and imagine an SE, is to hold the whole in your field of vision, is to situate yourself at the very edge of sanity, to offer yourself up for ridicule.SE was courted and fawned over by the genuflecting representatives of this ancient civilisation with a fervour that can only be described as indecent. Whole cities were superficially spruced up. Thepoor were herded away, hidden from the presidential gaze. Streets were soaped and scrubbed and festooned with balloons and welcome banners.

Yup, maybe we should have a wiki with a list of all SEs/ J tix purchasers who have never been invited into that Bimmer.

I'm happy tryinginvain - s/he of no status and on an award ticket got the ride.

Maybe I'll get one when I no longer have status and fly on an award ticket.


OMG, you're awake. Falling down laughing

I wasn't referring to the clock.

I was referring to your energetic prose and writing style.

Was studying for my upcoming ECON midterm, came across the poem of Rumpelstiltskin and its relation to globalization in 21st century, decided to edit it slightly(inputted a few words here and there) for the enjoyment of others.

And for a Montrealer, 1am is the start of the evening.
