There's been a lot of speculation that it's not long for this world.

I suspect the first decent offer TG gets for the 345s they will take. There was even word of them just scrapping them as that's been the best offer they have gotten so far....

What I first saw of the post tiltle was Eric C and my brain said Eric Cartman? Well we know we won't be seeing him on a CO flight near you.

Wow that would make a great South Park. Angry over the changes in the upgrade system.

It could be written so it isn't. Just image demanding compensation by screaming in an airport. Full entitlement type people looking really stupid at the hands of South Park and they are real good at that sort of thing.

Not necessarily. There could be a lot of refreshing going on, which would increase the page views.

That's my point, people should be posting which would refresh the page itself. :-:

Maybe my next video editing exercise should be for a video titled Rage instead of Passion and Lust.

Considering belynch's experience with cancelled TG flights, I am hesitant. It is an A345, though. :-:

I'm sensing a missed opportunity.;) Though CM seems to have it covered.

When I win the PWP thread, it's yours.

I mostly bailed on the UA forum for the friendly confines of Teh Box. I basically ignore any thread involving upgrades, boarding priority, or compensation.

FWIW, I've had exactly one flight on CO ever (and it was on COEX even). Not that it was a bad experience or anything, but I'm ORD-based, and UA is my company's preferred carrier. Heck, I even took my first flight on the dAArkside in 7 years this week.

Not all of us UA flyers are self-entitled :rolleyes:s. Some of us are good little PWPers. ^

I don't have too much issue with the new upgrade policy. I'm usually either flying hub-hub, or on regional jets, so as a 1P or 2P for the last 6 years, I'm used to rarely getting choice upgrades. I was shocked to have an ORD-LAX clear earlier this year. ps service doesn't ever apply to me because I never fly transcon.

The upside for me is that assuming DEQMs post in a timely fashion, I'll be 1K soon.
