OK, I hadn't realised that at all...that's actually a major downgrade to Silver level, IMHO (Silver is J checkin + lounge anyway)...naturally lounges are always nice but it's especially nice when you can take your travel companion with you.
Anyway, Silver is so easy to get now that even those new benefits are enough, I guess..one will get silver with basically one J return with a European connection thrown in..
