Quick update on my situation.

I ended up getting AA to match my CO Silver status (it was about to lapse) to AA Gold. Since Feb 15th I've flown about 60k BIS miles almost all in business class (full flight list below). I'm 15k short of AA executive platinum and will have it by the end of June. That being said, I find myself flying almost exclusively in full-fare business on CX. Anyone think it's worth trying to switch to the Marco Polo club? I'm just debating if there are any tangible benefits outside of the occasional upgrade to F (the HK to Australia flight are two class flights anyway).

Any thoughts or advice?

Thanks
