Etihad Guest is making a bunch of loyalty program changes, expected to take effect from June.
Some of the changes include:

Some of the changes include:
- New award chart pricing (according to the airline, 70-80% of redemptions will become cheaper... we'll see)
- A new Diamond status tier above Platinum
- New personalised elite status benefits - custom benefits that members can choose upon reaching Silver, Gold and Platinum status (this seems to be becoming a bit of a trend)
- Removal of segments as a way to qualify for status
- Platinum and Diamond members will be able to choose their own membership number (I don't know of any other program that offers this - it's kinda cool, albeit of no actual practical benefit)
