Hehe, well coffee and tea is free of charge on SK, starting a week or two ago. Before that, there was a period of ~5 years when you had to pay for it.

I think you have made an accurate listing, and there are many factors to consider for choosing preferred airline & program, I agree. And it is probably true that AY doesn't come out of that comparison very favourably, especially for a SF based flyer.

And I agree that AY should work hard to "up" themselves. I just don't agree with the LCC lable.
