I've got an IAH-MIA-DFW-FRA MR that weekend upgraded to C all the way through (in advance! :D) thanks to EVIPs. Plus the 300% RDM bonus, double RDMs and elite choice helps too.

EXP is one of the best (if not the best) top tier program out there.

From one EXP to another, I could not agree more huge +1. Now only if AA had UA, CO or DL-NW's route structure for us to use our SWUs.;)

Have you checked online. Perhaps it sees you as Elite there and will give you the number and access.

If you're referring to my missing miles, yes and no. Yes, I checked. No, it still shows me as short of being Silver.

Poo. If the ticket had credited all the way thru, my doohickey would be different by now:

It is much easier to multi qoute when one is catching up on so many pages. I hate to say this but I kinda wish we could post like on facebook, right under the previous post. Would make posting responses easier.

I hate facebook means of it, imagine going back to page 400 to see a reply :D

Agreed on Manhattan Beach. Be sure to eat at Tapa Meze Bar & Grill when there. Absolutely delicious food.

Congratulations!! I have all my LH and UA miles just waiting for my Hilton Honors miles to post for my ORD Hampton Inn. My parents are coming to visit for BDAy and I am planning on booking hotel under my name and get the points and 2 more stays closer to Diamon with HH. :)

Good luck getting to some places with AA INT...like TLV, they aren't getting any inroads in getting back there....

With the possible exception of Teh BA Forum, I suspect teh CO Forum has more non-BD-native BD abusers than any other FT group.

Of course all do to our great BD leader!!

Sounds like a plan. And I'm going to need to eat soon enough. Haven't had anything since my last snack on the LH flight around 5pm local last night. I may have to dig in to my camera bag stash as I don't have the rental car pick-up for a couple hours yet.

It would be a match made in heaven.

However it looks like the brain trust on a.net is positing a potential AA+US tie up should solve both carriers woes...the match made in hell. Where do those people get their ideas from?

Exactly as I noted. AA's major problem is route structure as they rely on partners internationally for the most part where SWUs cannot be used.:td: Still, EXP is a pretty sweet deal.:-:

There does exist a short video clip of none other than the Wizard of Fozz doing an impersonation of a crazed a.net poster.

Im an idiot. Some how I figured my flights from this past weekend on AA would put me over the threshold to get another 4 upgrades that I could use in December. Well my math was wrong by 91 miles and now I'll be in Y the entire way. :mad:

That sucks!! Perhaps a nice call would help??

The restaurant is on the right, almost immediately after you turn onto Manhattan Beach Blvd from Sepulveda Blvd.

I always though AA was comparable to CO in terms of international destinations? :confused: Perhaps I gave them too much credit.
