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.

I paid $140 for a fresh set of eyes three
months ago and was told, "No reason you shouldn't get a call, you are very competitive."

Crickets.

Still hanging in there!!

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

Hahaha. It wouldn't have been the first time she swindled me out of money!

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?

I would consider a job application or resume as being outside the "need to know" boundaries.

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.
