Do we need a list of the FTers attending this weekend's festivities so we know who has to be bailed out of jail? ;)

Have fun!

God that was sketchy.

In other news, CO elites might not be as warmly welcomed after today in KL's IAH facilities. :eek::eek: :o :D

Don't know if this is a box question.

Are the BE21UPN Y-up fares (available to everyone, not just elites) CO is offering on EWR-SFO right now for $798+ ($819 all-in) - roundtrip - new? Cheapest 'genuine' B fare is B7X at $998+, with B1 at $1198+. Since when was CO selling roundtrip nonstop transcon F, even nonrefundable and with 21-day advance purchase, at $400 each way? No wonder there aren't any transcon EUAs ...

The fare is for travel 4/29-6/15, btw.

Have they ever been seen in the same place at the same time?

It's even cheaper with connections: ROC-EWR-SFO BE21UPN for $668+ roundtrip?!

Everything is a box question! Just prepare yourself for a box answer.

I believe B-Ups are only available to elites. As a Plat when I see a B fare with an open seat up front it tags it with "elite upgrade available" or something similar.

I've seen that fare too. Too bad I never fly to SFO with 21+ days notice. :rolleyes:

Wow. That was incredible helpful (but maybe totally wrong). I will end this post with: poop.

That is all.

Nope, these are genuine UA/AA-style -UP fares. No elite status needed. You can get them by searching for First on CO.com, actually, without logging in.

All questions are Box questions. We are the collective kings and queens of useless information.

Wow. I still can't get used to the new fare code system for some reason, and I'm an ex * guy too.

So, to answer your question, I've seen the fares that low in the past couple of months. I know that to be true.

Have a great time everyone that's heading over to AMS. Don't forget, more is more.

I just tried exactly what you suggested - signed out and searched for those fares on that date. F r/t fare books into A and is $1500 r/t. The fare is YCOUP.

I'm not sure about that B fare, but it isn't booking into F for a non-elite on those specific dates.
