LOTS of flying on DL, hence the low segment count.

No soft landing here. After 5 consecutive years of PE loyalty I moved my flying to UA/AA. More than 75% of the NWA EQM was on CO (H/K)

no soft landing here either - I'm busted down to Silver

Purposefully flew less on NWA due to mind-numbing boredom on Y-class transpac flights and wretched arrival times in HKG & PVG. (not to mention the mandatory doe-see-doe at NRT)

Ooh! Ooh! Can we please add CAN, where NWA arrives after all connecting flights have left at night, and leaves in the morning before any connecting flights have arrived, to that list? It's weird to have a favorite hotel, where I've stayed multiple times, in a city that's never even been a destination for me.

Finally made it to Plat from Gold-with help from the FT community and in spite of 50% EQM on CO. Still getting used to the EUA at 5 days!

I checked last week and I went from Platinum to Base Member...checked today and it now shows that I'm Silver for 07...mute point, since I will be platinum by 3/1, but still it's interesting that they gave me some status for this year. (flew less that 25k on paid tickets in 2006, blew through alot of miles on award tickets)

oh, the forum is going to hate me for this, but NW ended up soft landing me to SE even with 0 EQMs and nothing booked for 2007

you are not a threat to others since you don't plan to fly NW and your SE is useless.
