Does Marco Polo have minimum requirement to fly CX to get status? I'm thinking of taking 5 round trip connecting flights....that would get me 20 sectors and keep gold for another year.

Hi Physci, are you UK Centurion member? It seems this lower threshold does not apply to Hong Kong Centurion members (

Great thanks! Any ICC Cent got the letter yet? My CX DM would expire at the end of the year, so we'll see.

Sorry this is late but I am ICC Cent and received the same letter many months ago, extending six months (Aug 14 to Feb 15 for me) and confirming lower qualification requirements. The letter also included a new CX DM card with the extended expiry.

Updated Diamond status on Cathay Pacific - extended five months

Dear ACfly,

Cathay Pacific and American Express hope you are enjoyng your 1 year Diamond membership in The Marco Polo Club. We are writing to let you know that we are making changes. We are pleased to extend your complimentary Diamond membership for a further five months. This means your membership will expire 30 September 2015.

After that time, you will need to accrue 60,000 Club miles or 40 Club Sectors to retain Diamond Membership tier status.

Is there a list of what countries that issue centurions have the Marco Polo benefit (reduced mileage qualification)?

So far looks like UK, Canada, ICC do, and US, HK do not.

ACfly, did you have any earning flights with Cathay before they offered the additional five months? Was the offer addressed from Marco Polo or Amex?

My Diamond ends February and I could do with a few extra months to cover increased flying April to July.

Thanks Oystercatcher
