Sorry, but logins aren't the only way they do it. I was called by John Reistrup about the mess they created when they originally merged. My fifteen year old HP number was blown away and several hundred thousands of miles lost. My postings here made it to him and he called. It's through flight info that they track us down.

BTW, they never gave me my old HP number back, I was stuck with the US East's BM number. It's gone downhill from there quite fast. I am looking forward to Virgin America coming in and spanking US carriers hard and often.

I'm not saying they did, as it would be a cumbersome process in relation to what they might have been trying to do, but for many of us, I do believe they could with enough effort..

Post such as these,

particularly when leaving the name of the CSR you spoke with, 'should' be pretty easy to track down:

Compare that info to the manifest for the 1930 flights on January 2, 2007

and the thru passengers from Newark to PHX on 22SEP 2006:

We tend to offer up a great deal of information about ourselves without realizing it.
