"Regional Upgrades" now shown on co.com
A step in the right direction ^ My CO homepage now shows "regional upgrades" as well as "system-wide upgrades".
Ok so they're showing as zero but that could be because I'm only at 75k+ by the combination of my CO and UA EQM but perhaps they'll be refreshed soon.
Are these populated yet for anyone?

Interestingly, they're not shown when I go to "view account details" and when I returned to the homepage the line is no longer shown. Still some way to go, it would appear.

Actually I don't see that data at all on Continental.com.
However, clicking on "View Account Details" now has a yellow banner saying that Mileage Plus is the name of the program moving forward and that OnePass will end 12/31/11 with wind down in Q1 2012.

I think they are working on the site -- all my recent OP activity is gone.

I thought I was losing my mind but it's nice to see that I am not.

I saw the same thing briefly yesterday. Additionally on the right below activity it displayed the pull down box for previous OnePass statements and another pull down box below it for "MP Historical Data". Also, my EQM balance displayed my combined CO and UA EQM's. Hopefully a sign of integration coming soon and support that he CO website/features will live on.

Interestingly I see the MP Historical Data link below my Onepass statement link on the preview site, but clicking on it gives me my Onepass statement (same as clicking the Onepass statement link above it).
I dont see CR-1's or SWU's anywhere (I have >160K EQM this year). Upgrade reservations does show CR-1 or SWU in addition to miles or $$. The option is grayed out for all my flights though.
I do see that on current reservation Fare Class is a hyperlink that calls a popup listing fare bucket availability (really nice!)
Looks like it should be coming VERY soon (keeping fingers crossed).
Maybe I'll be able to book that fall vacation I've been holding off on soon.

If the agents are correct, then the regional upgrades and SWUs should be deposited by midnight CT, July 15, 2011.

Any true value to Regional Upgrades??
I have just qualified for my first two. However, to me they seem to have the "value" of those old "positive space upgrade certificates." In other words (and keep in mind this if for Platinum status):
1) If the Regional Upg clears, they you certainly would have been upgraded anyway with your status, and 2) if the Regional Upg doesn't clear, then you still have a chance of being upgraded due to your status!
Of course, if you use them for someone else, then they have (potential) value.

In UA land these are frequently used to confirm upgrades on tough UDU routes or on the p.s. services from JFK to SFO/LAX.
