Someone flying 60K in 2 years won't really understand or appreciate the benefits of being an elite flyer. The perks don't kick in often enough to feel like it makes a difference.

If you're up in the air every week for 4 or 5 hrs a time, or monthly trips that run 8 hours or more, the perks of elite status makes more sense and feels more necessary.
