2014 to Singapore on a Delta run. I paid $1k and may have been the best grand ever spent...I was hooked on the flying, the status, the pampering and soon thereafter met Flyertalk. 2014 also saw the Alitalia RTW deal so overall a great year. After that I went for and continue to keep Ex.Plat...and yes, Flyertalk is a part reason for not stopping.
