What happens to me? As you are all painfully aware, I lose CP status this year. And it sucks that I don't have any upgrade certs I might add.</font>

I earned silver in June and gold in September last year, both for the first time. When I call to check on my mileage clock, I was told that it would not reset until March 1, 2003. I asked the agent to check again to be sure and she confirmed.</font>

All those miles flown as CP and not a single cert - not that I'm griping about unlimited upgrades as CP. But it's sortof like starting over. So assuming the elite Gods smile and I only slip to Gold, I'm not losing the miles I've flown in Jan/Feb in terms of the 10k bogie to get new certs, am I???</font>

Sounds like you need to take a mileage run to Europe after March 1 using SWU's maybe

Email them and ask them for some certs ... the worst they'll do is say no.

Last year I lost 9K in preferred miles on 3/1 and swore it wouldn't happen again. I was all set for 3/1 with my counter at 1800. THEN I got the call - 4 500 mile segements in a Y4A fare which were upgraded to a F fare. If I calculate correctly that is 750*4=3000 plus double status bonus = 6000 preferred miles. Now my counter is at 7800 miles. I'm very happy with the miles but feel like I got **rewed again. I need to make CP so I don't have to worry about this anymore.
