Needless to say, these people who fly 2 or 3 times a year generate more revenue than the odd E or SE who does it on the cheap doing mileage runs. I can recall AC bashing because of it from them and them wanting to fly with others the next time.
That's the beauty in Life there are options... like how it works as in the pecking order of getting your $10K meal then vote with your feet and fly another *A airline....hello it's called LOYALTY for a reason because we are loyal and continue to fly weekly with AC. If I was spending a full J Class ticket on UA would they serve me first over there Global Services, 1K Million Flyer and IK?...I think NOT!
