I didn't read the pre-released (and declared hoax) list of winners, did it match up?

Still not bad for a year of traveling.

For me, I'm taking routings to existing commitments - I serve on a board and am taking three segments each way BNA-WAS for the five meetings this year (e.g. "silver"). I then have some work-related travel and personal events (like CO Do IV, LAS, national conferences, e.g. "gold"). Then there's some strategic MRs that are really segment runs, like the 12-segment BNA-ORD RT (six segments each way) for $278. The end result is intended to be an average cost/segment under $30.

Running 100% on upgrades thus far this year, so I'm not complaining.

That would really suck if a list got leaked - it'd certainly cost PWC the auditing job.

I might have to do that for this year's travel ...

Interesting contrast between CO and DL. We just now got our upgrades on Saturday's DL flight PBI-LGA. At 1130PM there were 9 FC seats for sale. After our upgrades there were 7. The coach cabin is nearly full. We had the $85 least expensive fare class. Does it seem likely that of over 100 coach passengers we were the only Platinums? On any CO flight PBI-EWR, it has always seemed to me that there are quite a few more than that because after the Platinum window, there is frequently nothing or almost nothing left up front.

Use your previous FF statements and build as far back as you can - have fun with it if you're gonna do it.
