I love the way people talk about rewards u can get with AM. I'm Dream, collecting slowly for 20 years and I have 7k pts.
Now there's really nothing I want to get, since the change in 2011, Dream is essentially for trips (which the amount of points has drastically gone up in the past year). Not even GCs are available.
They really did put the squeeze on us.
Case in point, I agree I'm acting like a spoiled kid that feels entitled, especially at cut off time, but I haven't been able to do much either since the dream and cash went into effect.
I'm just trying to find a solution, but the pickings seem to be very slim...
