Upgrade for Gold in INTL - Page 2

merchanb · 09-25-2003, 09:17 PM

ITN was probably showing routing via CO 9.

For CO 99 on 10/22 Galileo shows J4 D4 Z0

There are a bunch of empties up there but they're still hanging onto them..

Don't worry yet. Too soon to panic.

Hang on . . . and keep calling.

You might want to call the elite priority line now Optimist1125.

(Unless, of course, you need more than four seats.)

... for your suggestion. Just called again... <sigh...>
They still refuse to clear me for either trip.
Still quoting the "30-days to 72 hours" mantra.

Maybe I'm not asking something right? Or nicely enough?
Or? Or? All other [even 'way out of the box] suggestions welcomed.

...Where can I find all that specific flight info?

Try Galileo at http://www.seatmap.com/

Don't get upset if you see zeros after a class because, like it says: "Ist hinter der jeweiligen Klasse eine Zahl größer ‘0’ angezeigt, dann sind noch entsprechend viele Plätze verfügbar." (Yes, I do babble along just enough to get in trouble in French, German, Italian, Spanish and, sometimes, even English.)

All that means is they have lots and lots of empty chairs in the whole durn bus and, by now, they don't care what class of ticket they sell. They do hate to let those upgrades go more than 4 at a time, though, just in case a dozen big spenders (or platinum elites) want to hop aboard at the last minute.

It would appear that your upgrade is practically assured . . . if they don't decide to cancel the flight on you.

And, if a foursome want to play golf in BizFirst and pay for it, so be it. or... que sera sera...
that could help CO bring revenue, and then maybe, just maybe, things will open up for us who have to work at this... Ah well, just pontificating.

As always, luv 'yall who take take the time and energy to post on this forum & share, absolutely [especially including MerchanB...]

HI,Guys......
Indian market is based on the closing prices as the market in NY opens when Indian market is closed.
So, the price fluctuation is based on closing price not the intraday high and lows........

Hello
I m flying tomorrow on AA 51 LGA-DFW and am in the "way back." I' ve been on the upgrade list for a few weeks and as of a few minutes ago, there were 2 business and 3 first seats open. In the olden days, my VIPs would get me any open seat, but not any more.

Does anyone know any of the details regarding the process, priorities, etc associated with international upgrades? Does EXP/VIP/Air pass buy you anything in this situation? Any tips on getting a seat to open?
