But agree - I think as well that compared to other airlines, CX is actually providing quite a lot of benefits to their SL members. So much that some DMs and GOs even call for separate handling of them e.g. on priority boarding And no, I'm not one of those - I know where I come from!
My dad dropped down from GO to GR with no soft landing after 4 consecutive years of GO membership. Do not know whether this can be applied to DM, though.
