Reducing perks for high-mile travelers will only encourage folks to book away on high-mile travel itineraries.
The fact CO now has inspired folks to even window-shopping the competition for their next transpac is a poor result.
The 75K new pseudo elite level is too cute by a half, another silly nod to COs "legacy", a disastrous mistake.
Well, we call CO AirIAH/AirCLE/AirEWR for a reason.
Expect more "cute" moves. The CO bean counters need some lessons because of their limited experience running world airline.
