TLVflyer

I have always kept my MP address in the US, even though I spend much more of my time at a foreign one. No real reason, just the sort of thing that many expats do with their banks, credit cards, and the like.

I recently read that the new Elite Dollar requirement applies only to US addresses. Does that mean that I should switch my account (wife and kids too?) to my foreign address?

Are there hidden disadvantages that I don't know about?

I seem to remember for example that years ago, perhaps it was with CO, that Israel-based travellers and some others didn't get full credit or EQMs or something when flying TLV-EWR or on some other routes.

Is there anything like that?

Or, should I just make the switch and help assure that I'll be able to maintain the 1K, P, or G status that I've had for many years?

Thanks!!
