I'm not sure I would agree. E75 as a status isn't particularly valuable - the benefits are only marginally better than E50 for a good amount of extra flying. SE is another story obv, so if that's in the cards then go for it, but if not, I think E50 (or 60 for the useless upgrades that cost $750 to use on international routes) is good enough. For God's sake don't do a mileage run to AKL (unless it's in J!).
