There are no stupid qustions here. (well....O.K., I may have posted a few). There are, sometimes, answers that are less polite than others. It's similar to asking an FA for Channel 9. ;)

I have however, seen (or personally have given) more than a few stupid answers in my time. ;)

And obviously there are stupid spellers as well. :rolleyes:

Now if someone could scan the "100K FLYER" on the manifest.

I just flew on a US as a UA codeshare for the first time today. My US boarding pass stub said "1K". Now I hope everyone is good and confused.

Yep, on US, the boarding passes simply show "1K." For Premier Executive, it shows "Premier Exec" and Premier is just "Premier." In most cases, the 1K is so small that it would easily be missed unless one was looking for it. As for the FA manifest and passenger lists, US uses the same codes as they do for their own elites, US1, US2, US3, US4 (US1=1K or Chairmans Preferred, US4=base member).

I thought US used UA1, UA2, UA3, UA4 for UA MP members. On the confirmations I have from US it shows UA# not UA#. Do manifests use a different notation than printed confirmations, and if they do, why is this so darn complicated?

See Post #12 in this thread.

Until I started visiting this site, and learned about 2p, 1p, and 1k; I always wondered why it was 1k since I thought that K represented Kilo (I'm a techie). Once I saw the codes, I figured thats how it got that way. It is very confusing to an outsider though...
