QuoteQuote2Fat got me curious. I'll start. NW might come in and kick my ass... Let's see... (All for 06/07)
Continental: Platinum
Starwood: Platinum
Hilton: Diamond VIP
Hyatt: Diamond
Avis: Chairman's Preferred
US Scare: Gold
Continental gets me upgrades, as does Starwood and Hilton. Avis gets me upgrades, but usually into a Lincoln Towncar or something, which makes me feel like I should be having dinner at 4:30pm.
US Scare doesn't give me shit.
Who next?
Show off.
When you get to the top, you can attain the top of the others easily by calling, speaking to the right person and telling them you're looking at switching to them. they will put you at the top to get your business.
20% of the travelers account for 80% of the business. Which group do you think gets taken care of better?

QuoteElite Status -What are we?
I am guessing by your threads and over the past year everything you have told us about yourself and what you own and what you were the first person to do or own or the places you have gone that the answer to your question would be that you are 'a person who can never stop braggin about himself'.
A lot of people are in your position in this world but the skydivers that are in your position do not sit around writing posts in a way that you are trying to be sincere in asking a question when you are just disgusing the fact that it is just another post for you to tell people how much you have.... One day you will realise that most skydivers are very poor, well the jumpers that are 100% committed to the sport full time are very poor..... I mean, right now, i am sitting in a trailer on a dropzone freezing cold with a good 100 other trailers around me full with people and come to dropzone.com to hear you talking about diamond blah blah and vip blah blah and all this shit.
Sweet, you are loaded, but do you reackon you need to be publicly telling posting about all your rich ventures and all the things you own when the majority of people who read this site are ery poor and just do everything they can to be able to jump and give this sport all they have?
I have money, i have many properties that i own outright, but i aint going to sit there and rub in the faces of all the skydivers in the world. There are 35,000 plus people who visit this site and you are just putting all these posts up about how well off you are for the poor people to read... I mean, give us a break come on... enough all ready.
Yeah, yeah, this is going to be put in the bin cause someone spoke the truth about how they are taking your posts.

Wow! I didn't take the post like that at all.
Maybe you should just not read any of ntrprnr's post if you feel that way.

I'm sorry if you're having a bad day, I'm having a pretty shitty one myself, but if you knew Peter you would probably understand that his motivation would never be to make others look bad, but more just curiousity or conversational. I hope your (and my) day gets better. ![[:/]](/uploads/emoticons/dry.png "[:/]")
Take care.
Take care.Quotejust having a bad day
Well then, since you're man enough to admit it, then I guess I'll give you a vibe thing.
Mind you, I don't normally do this shit.
Hugs, Vibes.......hope it gets better.

There are many that are on these forums that make their weekly, biweekly, etc. commute to the airport to fly off to their jobs. I am one of them. The topic of this thread was to see where the road warriors stood on their elite status with their various travel vendors.
Yes, Peter has toys. So do I - although not to the extent that Peter does. There are some here that have more than he does too.
You missed the point of the topic though - what is your elite status with your travel vendors? you don't have one? Sometimes I wish I didn't.
Move on...next thread.
btw, I'm assuming you've missed the thread where Peter is giving Skymama the keys to his pad in NYC for her vacation while he is out of town?
There are people that impress me on the forums, there are others that just annoy me. Some on here have no life beyond what they do here it seems.
back to ripping music and booking flights so I can spend even more days away from home not sleeping in my bed and enjoying my home in the place where I chose to buy and enjoy it...

ya know, I have been flying FL to CA round trips every week for over a month, with 2 more months in this project. Last week Mariott told me I hit some kind of elite status.
I have no idea what these type of status are worth. Room Upgrades? Big deal!
Car upgrades? They usually give me larger cars anyway, but I don't drive much while onsite...
Seat upgrades on flights? hmmm...
So, my question is 'what do you do with all those status upgrades?'

Perhaps you can cut bigway some slack. He did retract his statement. We all hit the reply button a little too quickly sometimes.
Peter sounds like a great guy, especially in regard to his generosity toward skymama.
I'm sure bigway is also a decent guy.
