Okay, this belongs in the Starwood hotels thread, so feel free to delete it, but since I just signed up for SPG and will be going Gold (thanks to SMD2!), I was looking up my number and noticed that the Sheraton North Houston where we will be staying is part of the "Every Night Counts" promotion so it seems that you can earn double points on that stay if you sign up by October 31st (but I didn't check rate rules, ie. if group rates are excluded or something). The Seattle Westin is not participating.
Just thought I'd mention it. Cheers, Powers

I think the SPG info. is relevant here with all the new SPG Golds/Plats participating in SMD2!^

Bundy Bear, Big Mac, Art234 invoices sent.
I will keep sending out invoices, no worries. When we are full I will just cancel the rest so we don't oversell.
14 pax have so far paid for a free middle seat, that makes it 7 seats sold ^

Any way to send this 'bonus' offer out, via e-mail, to other Y folks?@:-) There are many who don't log in to FT during the work day, or are not following this thread, -- on a regular basis!!

Tommy Class. Great!!. Let's do it every day. Is this a new Continental-United product?
I wasn't aware of it until receiving mail blast about 15 minutes ago. Replied by email asap. Hopefully, I made it in.

Love the "Tommy Class"! I had insomnia in the middle of the night but didn't check this thread, so didn't see all the folk raising their hands to upgrade to TC. Instead, while tossing & turning & deciding sheep were too boring to count 
, I started thinking of who I could still contact re: signing up for a $699 E seat and was going to do that this morning. But based on the positive feedback & invoices sent for Tommy Class, should I now not bother trying to get others to sign up? Please advise.
Cheers.

Please clarify the miles on the Tommy class offer. The posting and email said
"And the mist important part: 200% RDMs and EQMs on CO and CO, F miles on LH and BD.
So if you're CO or US elite you will receive 8200 EQMs and with the 100% elite bonus that's 16.400 miles!! Even more than last year."
The 16,400 are RDMs or EQMs? I'm assuming 8200EQMs plus 16,400RDMs for a CO Plat. Is that correct?

And THIS, folks, should be proof positive to CO that some people WILL pay for E+!!!! (Or at least "Tommy Class.") Maybe the New United should just re-brand their E+ as "Tommy Class."
Hey......do those of us who ponied up for F at the get-go get suites, too?
