Ok. Maybe I’m blind but is there somewhere we can see which flights have posted? I know I have flights from 9/18 that haven’t posted and later ones that have but I can only tell because of the badges. I thought in previous years there was more detail available on our profile page.

I am having problem with flight on Sept 18. My activities from last Sunday (Sept 24) might post today or next Monday, which will make it harder to tell which flight posts and which hasn't yet.

No only what is shown on the Leaderboard and compare it to the altutude site.

Has anyone done any quick turn-arounds to the states? Those wing tip badges from YVR-SEA (and I'm assuming vice versa) are looking enticing but I would like to turn around as soon as legally possible. Do CBP find this thing amusing or am I asking for trouble flying in on one flight, out on another, with only a carry on containing an iPad and a sweater?

Definitely good advice. I’ve been sent to secondary often when doing quick MRs to the US. Somethimes the CPB agents are knowledgeable and understand the basic principle of mileage running, but more often than not they are clueless and I need to explain the ABC of Aeroplan Miles, status, etc.

I am still waiting for flights from Sept 24th to show, which includes both a second Wi-fi badge, and a second YYJ badge. Should be at 2250 at the moment and not 1500.
What I'm wondering is, if the contest is over on Dec 11th, do you think we would have a good idea by December 31st of the outcome for say 31-50? Because that would actually change what I choose as my select E75K privileges. Might actually give someone E35K if I have an extra 50 or so upgrade credits from being in the 31-50 range.

They don't run leaderboard updates daily.
I think by end of December, you'd probably know. It would only matter in the 10/11, 30/31, and 50/51 ranks.

I know they don't do them daily, but they've definitely done at least one since the flights according to those on this thread.

At least one - but for me at least (and I'm sure I'm not alone), it's a bit of a mess. I have later flights posted. Earlier ones are missing. (Yes, all booked during the contest period - in fact the earlier flights were booked after the later flights that posted).

Congratulations on achieving status. It does indeed make a difference to have lounge access. Quick question to anyone: how much time does it take to have Wings posted? I had a busy week last week, starting on 24/09 (LHR-YVR; YVR-YYJ; YYJ-YYC; YYC-YQR; YQR-YWG; YWG-YUL; YUL-LHR). My Altitude account is reflecting the first two flights but nothing yet in Earns my wings. I did book that trip on 09.11 so within qualifying period. Am I just being impatient?
