The SNA/ONT score was a Wednesday on a T fare on the 0545-ish flight. How you're not clearing as a Plat when I got it on Gold/T is mystifying.

Yes, it's mystifying to me as well. Looks like I'm 0 for 4 as an elite of any type. Two of these flights were Friday evening, so maybe that's what it is. L and T fares only.

I have 4 free nights with HH I need to use and miles with CO burning a whole in my pocket. Soon I will have 50K on DL and 75K on US hopefully!! :) MILES MILES MILES!!

This is a problem from which I would very much like to be suffering. :p

Silver (25,477 to be exact) will be achieved tomorrow when I land in RNO. Haven't put all of today's purchases in FM yet, but I think that Gold will pretty realistically happen, maybe even by the end of the summer. Plat will indeed be a stretch unless the BKK trip happens. Even if we do go to BSB, that won't do it.

Cool! ^
I would've had silver by now-- had I not had to cancel two trips in April (due to son's problems w/his dad :mad::rolleyes:). Am just keeping my fingers crossed that I will be able to travel in the fall (without son throwing a fit!:rolleyes:).
