UA Mileage Plus Silver Wings program
Lufthansa/Austrian/Swiss/LOT: miles&more: life long Senator (must be over 60 years old)
Hilton Senior (program abandoned)

saved? - may be if we would have many many more Senior contributors here and if they would activly agree and act to do something about it
I believe that the way UA Mileage Plus did handle the termination (or getting to sleep for life long members) the Mileage Plus Silver Wings program was much worse, as life long members did pay a one-time entrance fee, trusting that the program would exist as long as they (and not the Hilton Senior program) go on on living!

There's been little interest on the UA forum regarding SW but there just might be more here if the forum itself becomes better known.

United Silver Wings
Yes,, we need more members. There is currently a United thread on the closing of the Silver Wings program. I have never read anything on the United forum about the FT seniors forum. I will try to put a post in the current thread alerting UA seniors to the FT senior forum.
