Velocity introduces Forever Gold lifetime status tier

[serfty]

This status restructure just makes less and less sense.

Maybe they are have a dearth of Beyond members actually using the facilities.

Most of the flyers I've talked to who will be WP+ love it so they can't wait to be honest.

Very minimal beyond members.
Very minimal WP+ members.
Why not merge them.... Still very few member.

Less WP members.
Less SG members.

It's like asking why QF don't merge CL and P1.

Same thing really. Each tier is catered to a different target group.

Completely different. C o m p l e t e l y .

There's a heap more QF WP members than VA WP members.

There's a heap more QF CL members than VA Beyond members.

Same thing how ?

Merging a much smaller group is easy.

Merging a larger group not so easy.

Well, in both cases one is “earned” and one is gifted. The later on the premise that their organisation is a big contributor to the payers and status earners.

it's rewarding flyers like me who book for work requirements with very little notice and pay the premium prices.
Last week I had a MEL-SYD-MEL trip which netted me 66 SC's for $792 which would have been only 30 SC's before the change. I managed to get the trip DSC credited too, so it's a nice boost to my VA metal count this year for only 3 hours of flying.
