There are a few things about Sky Pearl club you might want to know before looking at it

1. They call it EQM but they calculate in kms. If you are used to miles that might might throw you off a bit, but all in all the unit doesn't really matter
2. They have COS multipliers on the EQS, which is very interesting. It means that J and F earns multiple qualifying segments on every flight, meaning qualifying on segments on short trips is easier. But a lot of fares earns 0 EQS, so beware
3. There is no Tier bonus on EQM or EQS so earning tier is as easy/difficult regardless if you are new or already have elite status.
