The party lasted till I discovered in 2000 that EK booked el cheapo tix bought online without availability check into full fare Y which meant op ups galore with Skywards membership.

I also remember the very early Qualiflyer days; spent several weekends at the Montreux Palace for 5'000 miles per weekend

Also remember the Circle days where I received a personal visit to the office and a gift after clocking my first 1 million miles!
