New to the Program -- Bonus Help
 

Hi All, So, i've been an AA Plat for some time now, but i have to start flying CO for the next year... any tips for a newbie? I'm trying to figure out where you find the bonus codes and the such, but am having no luck at all. Thanks in advance for any help.

Any Tips? Follow the rest of us CO Elites over to NWA where you'll get 100% credit on all NWA/DL flights regardless of booking method or fare code....or if you must stay with CO then only book via co.com so you'll get 100% mileage credit through 12/31/04 (after that I'm guessing it'll end)

I imagine being platinum, you must fly on some business and not all leisure. The 50% mileage qualification is only for economy fares. If you fly on higher fares, you will get 100% elite mileage qualification. You can find all the elite qualification information on Continental's website (under Frequent Flyer) or look here too:

Many of us long time CO frequent flyers are upset with them at the moment. You can probably get them to comp you plat status. Good luck with them.
