With all the recent cutbacks, devaluations, gutting of the FF program - whatever you want to call it - do you guys not think that the Concierge Service is also in AC's crosshairs?

The website indicates that there are 150+ concierge agents in the workforce, and quite a few stationed outside of N. America. This must have some impact on AC's bottom line.

Finally, if they did decide to do away with this program, would it influence your decision to go for SE100K status?
Depending on the route and class of travel, you do not need to be SE to be entitled/able to "enjoy" the Concierge Service.

In case of North American IROP, On My Way is a cheap and better alternative to the Concierge Service.
