Well QRC3288, what in your mind do you believe they or their employer should spend before achieving OW EM seeing I'm joining the ranks of AA EXP next year. Of course I could try to keep the AA Plt and CX Gld (both OW SP) during conflicting period, only one as OW SP and the other program OW RB either AA or CX, but what good would that do other than 2 guest in J class lounge and free AA domestic lounge access? Shouldn't people look for the program that rewards them the most even though qualifications for each one is different. In the case of the OP, AA Plt>CX Slv, mine AA Exp>AA Plt, CX Gld
