Just update the flight times...and every time you log in, take a look thru your app for any mistakes, spelling errors, stupid stuff. It wouldn't hurt to have a wife/friend/dog look over your app. Sometimes a fresh set of eyeballs will see something obvious.

If your wife took your $140, then you are gullible.

I am not a FFDO so I could not answer this, but I was talking to a guy who said he put that on his United app alongside his volunteer work. Because I am not in the program I am ignorant to the rules, but that doesn't sound correct. Any one know if you can put that you are an FFDO on your app?

Patiently waiting for the call as well. Though I'd get a quick call with tier 1 creds. Only thing I can think of is I published my app before it was perfect and they looked at it and shelved it.

Is that a thing? Shelving the app once published if there are errors? If the app meets the min criterion will they only look at it once every X months?

Should you wait until your airlineapps is "perfect" prior to publishing it? I don't want to publish it, have it looked at, and then have it placed into the "not going to happen" pile.
