"No Middle Seat" Guarantee: To ensure a comfortable flight we'll guarantee that you receive a window or aisle seat in Economy Class if you are not upgraded to the front cabin when you purchase a full fare on Continental Airlines and Continental Micronesia operated flights. We're so committed to this guarantee; we'll automatically reward our OnePass members with 2,500 OnePass miles if they do sit in a middle seat.

OnePass members traveling on non-discounted domestic fare basis codes and ticketed in F, D, Y classes of service and non-discounted international fare basis codes starting with J, D, Z, C, F, Y and ticketed in J, D, Z, C, F, Y classes of service qualify for the "No Middle Seat" Guarantee. The sole and exclusive remedy for when Continental is unable to provide a window or aisle Economy seat is receiving 2,500 bonus miles. A maximum of 2,500 bonus miles may be earned per one-way flight itinerary. Continental may terminate this offer at any time without notice.
I wouldn't sit in a middle just for the miles, but if you have no other option, the miles are certainly yours to claim.

ETA: Just noticed you are on a B fare. That doesn't seem to qualify...

But in my quest to get 150,000 miles by the end of the CY... it's miles.

But yeah, wouldn't be worth it.

Not really. BD is just consistently inconsistent. You never know quite what to expect.

+1. Or, at least make it constructive with some level of maturity included.

Morning Box:

Hope everyone is well today! Mom is coming in this evening to help with the kids while Mrs. Gtitan is in San Diego. Mom as a DL/NW Silver has only missed one upgrade this year traveling back and forth between CLT and ROC. That's a good batting average!

I'm jealous. I wish I could have made the ORD portion.

In other news, does anyone know if any of the * threads have answered the question of why the CO Star page lists lounge access for Star Golds but doesn't include the disclaimer that it's only for international lounges? I heard that was the case and imagine if it had changed there would have been a large uproar about it.
