No. Officially the weekend specials are excluded from the SDC policy and are ineligible for the change.

I am seriously considering this. I would just have to take Monday off from work, but that is no big deal. I did not want to go alone, but the S/O can't take off work. :(

Well, I'd be flying out and back on Saturday (land Sunday on the redeye) and then back out either Monday or Tuesday with likely another redeye return. Still need to track down Bernoulli777 and see what he's already booked on.

Are the CO weekend specials posted online? I can't seem to find them and didn't get the email about them.

No, they are not posted. It is another secret sale from CO. :rolleyes;

DCA actually is too far for a connection to matter. That only counts as far as Wilmington to the south and New Haven to the north. Officially you have to be on Acela Express from NYP to WAS to get the 500 EQMs (First nets 750). There are reports that business on the Acela Regional also get the credit, but if it doesn't credit you'll likely be in for a fight to get the points.

Did you get anything for your BRU-AMS flight yet? I'm guessing any possibility of that posting will take at least a week.

My VS flight has not posted yet , still at 0 :mad:

I will be in SEA this Saturday, flying back on the EWR redeye (on a pre-existing ticket).

If I can swing going to SEA, I would need to take the 8:35am to sea on 1/24 and return on the 7:40am on 1/26 and hope to make it into work by 6pm

I saw that fare in MR forum. It's ridiculously low. Why is everyone fighting for SEA right now? :rolleyes:

No, nothing for that yet. Curiously, if that posts as 500 EQM, I'll net more total miles than the original BRU-EWR-CLE-IAH routing. ^

I must say, I am really intrigued as to what the story is behind that pic. :cool:

No idea how many miles it will post with. I was rebooked in to C, so normally I would expect 750 EQMs. However, my AMS-EWR flight (rebooked in to B) only posted with 100% EQMs.

The W Seattle is $156.40 a/nt. not bad I guess.

SEA is on my radar for this year, and this is a great fare, but I would feel guilty if I left the s/o home, and I am sure I would be in trouble too... :o
