I'm finding it difficult to choose between the newly-added "Stars", or the enhanced earning rates on Turkish Airlines.
So I'd like to nominate both.

The expiration of the eVouchers (was starting end of June 2013)!
Serious
I never was gifted so much eVoucher from friends for upgrading my flights.

I find this poll a wonderful idea, this makes it even more easier for LH to decide which benefit to cut on 1.1.2015 - of course it will the nominated benefit.

Since most people voted for 2 year status with soft landing, that perk will soon be enhanced.

Is this a poll to be taken seriously??
I do not think that any of these options are viable "benefits" at all...
Edited to Add: I guess the single line item that I note as a benefit would be having your family join you in the SEN lounge when traveling together - a 2x occasion for me, but worth it to retain SEN? I think not.
I will still have to abstain from voting, due to the real lack of benefit options.

Thank you for posting the poll . To cast a meaning full vote I need to understand the options. I am familiar with the benefits of all above options except " status stars " . Can these be explained to me /us , since there is no benefit of these stars to be found anywhere on LH/MM websites.
Thank You

But anyway this is more like a joke no benefit at all - LH on the other hand is selling it as a benefit or how they would call it "A very special innovation"
Bottom line - it is kind of an ego boost for certain folks

As a "star" M&M status member, you will be the possessor of a distinctive membership card and bag tags that apparently have demonstrated monetary value, as evidenced by a handful of similar credentials that have reportedly been sold on eBay.
So...in addition to the value of the emotional well-being of being able to display proudly that you are a long-time status customer with Lufthansa, LH is going to send you trinkets with arguable market value.
(at least I think this is approximately how I understood the value of the "benefit" based on Dr. Huber's explanation)
