I guess that's another email I need to send.
Yes, I just got it in the last 2 hours and no, I had not sent in any emails about that one.

Hmm it seems it's appeared for me, but not for AmericanBovine. Go figure.

Maybe they’re adding it in reverse alphabetical order and the intern ran out of time. Or perhaps just in earned order although that seems too logical.

Except that my son & I did our earning at the same time.

Oh, and now the badge has gone from my account (and also from most but not all others, from what I can see).

Cool system they have here.

I swear I saw a Spread Your WIngs badge in my details last night.
But, as of now, all of the AQD Spread Your Wings badges have been disappeared, so I guess that is some type of double reverse order game. (or the intern hit the wayback button as they went home for the weekend)
If they keep making me question reality, how will I ever maintain the positive attitude necessary for the Holy Grail badge!

On my way to YVR today, so I will meditate on my struggles (ie "have some wine") and see if I can hold a rainbow after that.

Not that I am competing for a top spot, but I also noticed that I received the AQD badge yesterday but it is gone as of this morning. Maybe a generalized thing?

AC read all the complaints here so removed them all.

If you didn't get a call and and a ticket on the corporate retreat flight to EYW it might be too late now... Aeroplan and the web programmer interns may have taken this charter with Air Canada's $. This is why the promised updates are so delayed..

So you're saying there's a chance!

This morning the "spread your wings" badge seems to have come back .... but with the same gaps in coverage; I have it again, but my son (incorrectly) doesn't.

Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.

AmericanBovine still doesn't have the badge.

He definitely earned more than 3000 AQD from EYW.

Only 5 people without the badge in the top 30.

I know for a fact that at least 4 of the 5 missing the badge are American citizens. (but nor as easy to know if the other 25 are all Canadian).

AmericanBovine and I spent exactly the same amount of money during the flying window.

We had identical flights (same PNRs) for EYW, and we each took one separate trip SFO-YYZ-SFO.
