All online this semester - a little more work but I work when I want to work.

"Unlimited Domestic Upgrades will not be valid on 3-cabin transcontinental p.s. product. You may use Mileage Upgrades, Regional Upgrades or Systemwide Upgrades to experience United Business or United First on these unique flights."

Wow, that implies CR-1s will not go away. I like it.

This does open up the possibility of GAs just upgrading people without collecting an instrument....

I still refuse to tweet or Facebook but I do allow office hours via Skype.

Wow. What message do these things scream louder if seen in a purse? Smell problem or stupidity problem? At least the first one is curable.

It's bad enough that I do Flyertalk, I don't need to add Tweeting to suck up more of my time. I rarely do Facebook. Not quite sure why it's even popular.

Worth mentioning that this is probably NSFW.

This quote seems to sum things up well:

I didn't the article itself was NSFW, though the link definitely is.

What's happening over in the UA upgrade thread is what would have happened had there been an internet forum on which some Southerners could have posted in 1955: the rage associated with the death of a sense of entitlement.

Others have pointed out some of the more hilarious opinions (Now everyone eligible will be competing for upgrades! How is that fair?) The overt slams at CO elites (if they let those people in, I'm out of here) are too precious.

I'm sorry, but I find it pretty damned funny.

Well, those kids better get ready for the impeding merger. :D

We clearly know who is driving now.

I should write a book: Dummies Guide to Gate Agent Shenanigans. :D

My upgrade percentage is dropping like a rock. Looks like I'll miss IAH-LAS tomorrow and it definitely looks like LAS-IAH on Sunday is out of the question.

I was doing better as a Silver.

I like it.

Or how about a coping guide called 'Why your luggage is in O'hare'. :D

2 things, routes, and elite inflation, there are less fliers but more flying are elite now.

Don't worry; if you get it wrong, someone else will fix it for you later. ;)

I just made my first contribution to get Teh Box 2 new lines and a dot - SFO-FAT and FAT-LAX. Let me know if I did something wrong in the entry.
