I think you're living in a fantasy world if you think that airlines are just going to give away status to all and sundry with no guarantee that they'll even fly with them. It's also a great way to annoy those who are actually frequent fliers and earned their status by paying for flights and putting their bums in the seats. I hope you find an airline that gives you what you want but I fear you are going to be severely disappointed!

I'm sure we'll all be interested to see how gutted they are to lose you as a customer
