- Complimentary Kingclub Gold Tier only until July 31st, 2012. Post which tier status will be governed by Kingclub t&c.

American Express, you've just killed it for me (and I'm sure for many folks like me).
I wonder if that has something to do with KF joining One World? I saw this as an easy opportunity to have OW lounge access and I wonder if KF's accountants realised much the same.
