Elevate "wish list"?
Just curious to know what y'all are still pining for out of Elevate, or what rumors you've heard about what's in the pipeline. I'm considering picking up the VX Visa but am still not sure the switch over from *wood amex makes sense.

I'd like to earn points on onboard purchases, paid upgrades, etc. anything to encourage spending on VX.
Main Cabin Select simply makes no sense on the shorthaul flights, why pay $200+ each way to fly LAX-SFO. I was fine paying $15 for an exit.

BUMP, this one is a deal killer for me!
I understand wanting to encourage account activity and not wanting long dormant accounts on the books, but come on, does anyone else just expire your points even if you are still flying them? Not anyone I fly.

Southwest does, though my guess is that you don't fly them.
