AC Doesn't Know (to the tune of Lustra's "Scotty Doesn't Know", from the film EuroTrip)

AC doesn't know, how many AQD
you got on your dash every run day
They leave you in the lurch
but they got your dough
Still you check the page, and

Chorus:
AC doesn't know
Oh, AC doesn't knooow
So don't ask AC
AC doesn't know
AC doesn't know
(So don't ask AC!)

For flights I want to be shoppin'
But the lack of AQD is blockin', cause
AC doesn't know, AC doesn't know...
(Repeat chorus)

The error message I'm not trustin'
Says the servers are combustin'
Got an agent on the phone
And I'm tryin' not to groan
Third time I've called
And he knows nothin', nothin'
(Repeat chorus)

My turn... put the needle on the AQD record.

A.Q.D., how can I explain it? I'll take it, frame by frame it
To have y'all all jumpin', shoutin', sayin' it
A is for "altitude," Q is for "qualifying'," scratch your temple
The remaining D, well, that's not that simple
It's sort of like, well, another way to call a quid a buck
It's seven little letters that are missin' here
You get on occasion if the other party isn't gamin'
It seems I gotta start the explainin', bust it
You ever had a flight and met with nice flow
You get fin reg and number
And then left postin' real slow
You get home, wait a day
It's what you wanna know about, then you call up
And it’s her aeroplan’s or altitude's house?!
It’s not a front, a F to the R to the O to the N to the T;
It's just her AC IT's at her house
(Oh, that’s why they’re scary)
It's A.Q.D., time other people's what you get it
There's no room for relationship, there's just room to hit it
How many brothers out there know just what I'm gettin' at
Who think it's wrong 'cause I was splittin' and codesharin' that
Well, if you do, that's A.Q.D. and you're not down with it
But if you don't, here's your membership

You down with A.Q.D.? (Yeah, you know me!)
You down with A.Q.D.? (Yeah, you know me!)
You down with A.Q.D.? (Yeah, you know me!)
Who’s down with A.Q.D.? (Every last homie!)
You down with A.Q.D.? (Yeah, you know me!)
You down with A.Q.D.? (Yeah, you know me!)
You down with A.Q.D.? (Yeah, you know me!)
Who’s down with A.Q.D.? (All the homies!)

This is becoming something... very impressed by this thread in so many ways.

Still a bunch of quotations. My quote to end the year is definitely...

So when AC Altitude says "Please check back again later to view your AQD tracker and recent transactions"

Does anyone know how AC defines the word "later"?

See, this is the great thing about such an ambiguous statement. "Later" could mean "later on this evening", "tomorrow morning", "next February", or "sometime after the heat death of the universe".

At this point, numbers 3 & 4 are starting to seem more likely than 1 or 2.

I haven't been swept for 2019 yet.

I'm pretty sure I met the AQD requirement. But some confirmation would be nice.

Perhaps AQD has been taking a Christmas vacation and we'll see it early in the new year.
