How depressing: 0 EQM, 0 EQS 
Something of an uplift: 23,300+ miles will be flown by end of Jan
More depression: will drop from 1K at end of Jan, so no SWUs for me this year
Something of an uplift: will still be 1P with 70,000+ miles flown in 2009 (would have been 1P anyway, with MM status)
Even more depression: not looking forward to UDU as a 1P
Something of an uplift: but still have plenty of CR1s to use in 2010

What took so long to build up is history now. I thought I would feel better seeing my new SWU and CR1's show up but those too are still zero....
Oh well, it's a new year and need to start building it back up next week

Not sure how I should feel. You know you read too much FT when your New Year's resolution last year was not some goal such as "be a better person", but to make 1K. Amazing, but that was one resolution I actually kept last year!
Keeping it positive.
Happy New Year!

What a bummer and total buzz kill to begin 2010.
The good thing ; I'll have 4 EQS before the 10th of January to get things rockin'.

I don't know about everyone else but I am actually excited about the zeros even though I have only one short trip scheduled thus far for 2010. The zeros mean game on to me...where will I end up this year for status. I am really excited to plan out new trips and see what is the most random route to take home to Chicago. I'm still a novice at this but I just thought I would throw another upside to the the zeros. Safe travels everyone and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I don't think I am going to hit refresh until tomorrow. That zero is exciting but I have yet to book a flight for 2010 and am already feeling behind...

No zeros any more 
. All three legs on LH from yesterday (Jan 1) already posted, including my red-eye from MUC-DEL that didn't land here in India until about 1300 local (0230EST) today ^^. 4,854 EQMs in the bank with another 12K+ plus to follow by the middle of the month.

Yes was kinda sad in a silly FT way to see my 54666 EQM go away having made 1P for first time ever but the goal this year is to manage the DEQM to requalify which might take actual planning versus the pure dumb luck I enjoyed in '09 with the promos.
Happy vapour trails! ^
