And you need to fly way above the GO criteria to get those stingy mid-tier benefits - lounge coupons for someone else to use. Bookable upgrades on shorthaul? Sure it will be easy to book one when CX is retrofitting its regional aircrafts to reduce like 40% of J seats!

Why not attain OWS somewhere else then?
Hadsst, that's what I intend to do. I will have enough to retain my DM status until December 2016 but I will be spending the whole of next year migrating to either AA, or a programme with star alliance.

I'm so glad I haven't booked any travel with CX for 2016 yet.
