Why should those with lifetime platinum be protected from enhancements? Give them their fair allocation!

With that suggestion you will replace me at the receiving end of the $hit$torm. Thank you.

Even I don't like that idea!! You talk about devaluating the FFP, I did not bring that up.

I do agree that life time status is a good thing and for a small group of people it actually makes them fly AFKL/Skyteam more than they would have (those that are close to ten years, would not qualify for Plat anyway, and that would have picked another carrier if it wasn't for the couple of miles they are missing to make it to Plat).
