Optimum status?
This is my first post so go easy on me.
I was at the SEA Budget counter last night and there was a sign on the counter that said Optimum in gold letters and had two last names listed below it. Is this some form of advanced status with Budget? If so, what does it take to achieve it?

Good question - I saw this at OAK last week also but had not noticed it before.

Welcome to FT raftman! IIRC, Optimum is reserved for corporate travel decision makers. The counter people just laughed when I told them that I make my travel decisions (they did upgrade me, though).
