Remember: Frequent Flyer Chat with Randy tonight
Frequent Flyer Chat
Tonight, Thursday Jan. 17 at 9 p.m. ET, Randy Petersen will be on hand to
answer your frequent flyer questions. Topics might be who has the inside
track for winning this years Freddie Awards, what can be done to convince
OnePass against dropping their 20,000-mile award, are special lines for
frequent flyers the answer to security wait woes and anything else you might
want information, advice or opinion on. Come join the others who like to
talk miles and more.
On Feb. 7, FlyerTalk Live! will host the movers and shakers of the US
Airways Dividend Miles program. With an abandoned United takeover, some very
lucrative bonus promotions and a rumored global alliance membership there
should be plenty to talk about.
Get a head start with your questions, go to FlyerTalk Live! on FlyerTalk.com

If you missed the Star Alliance chat, check out what was discussed at:

I got in late, and it's over now. Randy said that the Goldpoints "situation" involves a new vice president, and seemed (to me) to say that we can forget wonderful offers from them in the future.
He did say he expects other good offers to come along.
The transcript will be out tomorrow.

Thanks to Randy & Co last nights chat was one of the better ones- perhaps because he himself was the guest! 
Among the highlights was the fact that he noted that these days, to him a FF mile may now only be worth about 1.25 cent in most cases!
He also spoke very well of the Starwood CC from Amex!
The transcript should soon be up at:
