Makes sense from a money standpoint maybe, but it makes it less and less likely that I'll renew with every change. I'm just not as interested in sharing small planes packed to the brim with a bunch of strangers as I am in taking a few friends or family members on an occasional fun trip. I get that opinions may vary.
I swear that page changed overnight. It now says "Purchase SMART Memberships for Others Without Initiation Fee"... don't think that was there yesterday.

Also gone: the $20K in flight credit you get when signing up for a membership.
