6 Years Platinum & Lifetime Gold – Voting With My Wallet After Executive Team Apathy

The airline industry has become very cut-throat over the years due to its vulnerability to world events. As the corporate boards turnover it seems to only erode and not improve perks, especially for frequent flyers.
When I finally reached LTG it was a relief actually, I could shop around and I knew I had lounge access for our retirement.
I look at the whole thing this way, QF can be very inconsistent with recognition and I have set my recognition expectations very low now as my bookings are few and far between these days.
So now if I do get that spike of love from QF it seems pretty nice.
