[QUOTE=mbreuer;12666126]The RSS feed available on the news and offers page (http://www.continental.com/web/en-US...OPPROMOFEATURE) links to long gone promos.
For example, the third item in the list ... bold none the less:
"Find your next reward flight at 10% Off"
Would be nice but for the 2004 expiration date.
Well, they certainly fixed the RSS feed in a hurry! All offers appear to be current, and the 10% off one is not to be found, though clicking on that url still brings it up.
I agree that targeted offers would be nice. Especially for us potential targets!

Hmm... I still see it... maybe it's a function of the newsreader... I've got it loaded into live bookmarks in Firefox, just reloaded and it's still there.

For good measure, and even though it's been talked about elsewhere, EUA seems not to be working for everyone this week. Tons of space available in F, plats on H fares not upgraded...

She has a last minute trip "M" fare - corp TA won't ticket until the morning, flight is in the PM. She's gold (and this trip incl DEQM gets her Plat). So far doesn't look like any upgrades.

Booked M fares for 2 plats, upgraded immediately. Then when the res processed the seats went away and booked back into coach. Was able to get the F seats back but still a big .

My SO - now plat went to check in - was offered same day change for $25. Ticket purchased today, so should have been zero. She's on an M fare and was offered a buy-up to first as well for what looked like the fare difference to Y.
So I called for her... elite desk upgraded her based on the M fare....
Went to check her in...
When I clicked on the seat assignment (up front), I got the seat map for the back. I went back without touching the seat assignment and got a message that an upgrade was unavailable. After that no buttons on the page worked. Reloaded and tried again without clicking the seat map - everything was then OK.
Guess more issues with the *A transition.

Aha, missed SkyTeam reference:
http://www.continental.com/web/en-US...e/default.aspx
Under Club Access:
"... and SkyTeam Elite Plus customers ..."
Flight search options.... MAF-ZQN:
Continental or its partners serve these cities but do not publish schedules or fares between them. It may be possible to construct an itinerary using two separate fares by calling 1-800-300-1547.
Boo.
