Just Made Select Plus For The 1st Time
I'll put money if I did a search and put in the correct words I'd be able to find my own answer...
I'm surprised this late in the year they are going to send me a 2007 Select Plus package. You would think they would send a 2008 package instead.
Is this normal, or surprising?

John,
There is a chance that you'll get a kit for this year, since the year doesn't technically end until February 29th, 2008. Usually come December they don't bother to send out kits anymore.
Even if you don't get a kit though, you'll still at least enjoy the 50% bonus points for any rides that you do take between now and February.

Did AGR send you the PDF file of your "new" Select Plus car? That should work until the official card arrives. No luggage tags, but it should get you into the Club...

There was actually a new sign about ClubAcela in the PHL club on Sunday. It stated that new members could bring in a print out of their status until there card comes. This is a new policy as I was turned away from the WAS club shortly after I earned status and brought a print out of my account page.
The sign also stated that club dragons can't check if you have status and thus if you don't have a card or print out you are SOL.

Yep, got the pdf Select Plus "card" which expires 16 Jan 08. The funny thing is, whenever I do utilize D.C. or any of the other stations that have lounges, usually I'll have granted access anyways because I'm traveling in a status that allows access.
I really wish they would send the 2008 credentials, could utilize the coupons to procure some upcoming trips with.

I asked Tad (PHL lounge attendant) how busy they were over the holiday and he said it wasn't too bad 'up here.' He couldn't say the same thing about 'down there.'
