Please post your CO EUA success results starting with your flights on or after January 1, 2008 here:

OK, I'll bite, although tabulating this made me realize that I see the interiors of waaaaay too many RJs and NW DC9s...

IAH/JFK/749/Fri/Aug/Yes/Gold/No/NA
EWR/IAH/411/Wed/Sep/Yes/Gold/No/NA

That gives me a whopping 4/13 on eligible CO flights this year, with everything else either on a RJ, a DL RJ, or NW (3 for 3).

Why not also include the aircraft type? Some flights have operated with different aircraft types on different days of the week, causing some fluctuation of the number of elites upgraded.

We sure can, but the more the fields, the more difficult it will be to post on FT . Also, I was thinking to just get a general/average idea of how difficult/easy it is to upgrade on a particular route. Obviously when we plan flights, we know that aircrafts with less Fs will generally yield a lower upgrade percentage.

Good idea, but these charts always give me a headache.

Why not host on an external doc sharing site, like google docs?

If you do this it might be a good idea to add the fare class since there are a few out there that do Y-ups which really shouldnt be counted as an EUA.

Pretty great luck as a Silver! It's about to end, unfortunately, as my flights this weekend are full up front already.

This is not bad for a silver, let's see how this looks once I make gold mid October.

Sometimes, but not always. Some of us have a lot of upgrades on 735s.

I have all of this information for all of my flights for the last 3.5 years, with fare class for most flights since around 2006.

I didn't include flights on ERJs and CRJs. Also, I have deleted emails before 7/1 that I didn't need, so I'll have to look at boarding passes to see where I got upgraded before that. Will do that later.

Update: As suggested, I started a google spreadsheet. It might be easier to contribute and look at the results that way.
