If I pay for 1 more trip this year, I would have 40K miles flown by the end of the year giving me gold status. As gold, you get -100% miles bonus for each paid flight -upgrade 48hrs before flight, not 24 like with silver Is it worth it? |

I've had gold before, If you plan on flying alot next year as well it's probably worth it as you will get more free trips because you accumulate miles faster. When I had gold a r/t from NY would earn me more than 10,000 miles. As for the upgrade, I always had a problem with that, no matter what my status they wouldn't let me upgrade until I got to the airport, it was against the stated policy, but one of those things "muy tico". |

I don't know how long ago you had it, but it looks like things may have changed. If you do online check-in, they automatically offer the upgrade (if available). If not, I believe you get an email a couple days before bumping you up. Or, at the airport. |

I have a question about TACA. They are currently running a "special" of half price to buy miles. 10,000 miles for $125.00. How many miles does it take for a free trip from LAX? I will be returning for my 60th in January and it may make sense to buy the miles. My trip this time on TACA was very good, 5.5 hours non-stop both ways LAX-SJO, SJO-LAX. Good departure times at both ends. Thanks Steve - Santas Bro |
