So if we make PS today, 21 Jun, I thought that the count would start again, towards 20 Jun 2015 to keep Silver.
Never thought that with the cycle, indeed you would/could make Gold if you travel more.
I have some C & D classes of business coming up with NZ, so will be easy to keep PS for this upcoming year.
But with Tony Abbott making it harder to "go forward" (I have an ABN-re having to remit quarterly tax to the ATO-10%/15% of income), but am scared to make any more air travel - in case PMC at now $55, will keep going up, will it reach $70), that maybe, I will just stick with domestic travel from now on.
VA should have Silver +, ie, those who can't make it Gold, but with benefits than normal Silver.
Ok, anyway, good luck on aiming to achieve Gold.
I think PS will do me.
