Seems like you may be more of a potential to be a liability than an asset to a team

I am going to do significantly more travel this year because of a new system implementation. Please let me know if you would like to join my team.

Thanks!

OK. I realize I am late in the game, didn't even know Elite Choice 2008 was rolled in already Gotta keep a closer look at the UA forum!!

Anyway, I would like to join a team. I got my 1P as a status match and plan to make it 1K this year, and maybe more than 100K miles. So, my last year's EQM count was 24785, so I am definitely going to fly at least 75215 more than last year.

So I am looking to join a team preferably with members who would be doing at least 50K+ EQMs more than last year.

I have flown about 10000 this year and will have about 50000 by mid March.

Interested? PM me

The Away Team

Well I have registered an Elite Choice Team!
We are "The Away Team" and are made up exclusively of FTers. I will let them reply to this thread if they want to make their affiliation known but our home airports are OMA, DEN, LAX & SEA.

I need team members - and I may be a good asset

Hi,

My name is jfhscott. I made Premier Executive in a status match from AS last fall. I think I scored about 28000 actual EQM's in 2007. I anticipate many, many more this year. (Have 12,600 for 2008). I should have one or 2 DCA-LHR's a month this year, plus liesure travel (perhaps DCA-ANC). Anyway, please email at [email protected] if I am up to your standards.

And as of 1/19/08, we're at -202,014.

Beat THAT!

Side note... will be interesting to watch how often they do a sweep to update team EQM totals. I see 1/19/08 as current... I figure that this is the original sweep. Guessing that future sweeps will be bi-weekly (given that there wasn't an update on Saturday). Thoughts?

Edit: Just looked at the T&Cs and it appears that 2007s EQMs would be posted on 1/5, so that must be the original sweep and it jives with my 2 week guess. Separately, there will be email updates to the captain in/around March, June, September... I guess no December update to get us to MR? Wonder if the email update will list our current rank... probably not as it would be a disincentive.

Great! ^ Finally we have a team formed. Now I am hoping the SFO member can reveal him/herself, so I can assign "The Away Team" as our first FT team entry.

It will be helpful ( if you agree) to let me know your combined total EQM/EQS from 2007 so we have an idea of your starting point.

And the LAX member is currently "Down Under" so I am not sure when he will poke us head up.

I'm basically just replying to this thread since I am too dumb to subscribe, but I am going to be interested in joining a team.

I had something less than 15,000 EQMs last year in completing a challenge. I'll probably be shooting for 50,000 this year but hopefully will go for 100,000 if the stars align.

I'm looking for a team. I flew ~42k EQM last year. I'm already at ~33k this month. I expect to be in the ~150k range with current travel expectations.

Feel free to PM.
