Here's a question: If they move from the current AA elite tier scheme (GLD, PLT, EXP) and, say, go to one that combines the two (SLV, GLD, PLT, EXP), then what happens to the LT GLD and PLT members? IIRC, the welcome letter stated that I'd be GLD for life, not that I'd have entry-level status for life. Would that mean that all the LT GLD members would now have tier-two status? Or will this be seen as an opportunity to screw LT members by somehow changing the program enough to be able to say "the 'life' of the AAdvantage Gold program" (wording used in the letter) is over?
