:mad:

Sad that I am doing this all for 2600 miles but that is alot when it comes to EQ time!!

Agent tried to talk about how this has been the case since 1997 when I joined and all. I explained that LH was not a partner back then and that I dont pay whatever I want for the flights based on what I want vs what the website tells me and CO shouldnt tell me one thing and do the opposite. UGH!!

But co.com clearly states that S fares earn 50%, that is why I am confused at your anger. Maybe I missed part of the story. It was the same with some Skyteam partners where it was 0% 25% 50% EQMS on certain fares.

Is there supposed to be some bad weather on the east coast this weekend? Saw Olton Hall said something about a nor'easter... Weather channel doesn't show anything - but then again, it's the Weather channel.

A bad day in BOS will fubar my weekend run. :(

I'm pretty sure that back in December, when I and others booked tickets, that the CO Earnings Chart showed 100% for such fares on long-hauls, and 50% on intra-Europe. I checked before booking, to be sure, and Hartmann and sdm1130 also recall it being that way. sbm12 had a similar recollection, but also found some references in threads from several months back (before December) that appeared to reference 50% earnings for TATL.

I asked teh Insider if he wouldn't mind looking into whether any alterations (planned or accidental) had been made to the earnings chart during the period in question.

It claims 100% when booking it. I'd be rightly pissed.

I remember 100% as well since I was looking at PRG costs too.

I called SkyTeam USA on one of those inconsistencies once and they issued the right amount as a courtesy credit. I think it's a fair issue to pursue.

I'm tempted to do it for the miles... May just do IAH-LGA instead.
