Good, it is time for the Plat tier. 150k is doable if you compare it say HON with LH (600k in 2 years) but well ok, flying F in LH generates more tier miles than with EK.

Anyway, from a communication point of view, I am wondering how EK will communicate the 70% cutoff. This is not easy to explain with a headline. "7 out of 10 flights must be in Business or First Class"?
