If, this is true, then it will be interesting to see what the associated benefits are and what lifetime requirements for PP will be (assuming LT S, G and P remain what they are). Devaluing Plat to be the new Gold does not surprise me much with LTP requirements being so low. My guess is Plat and above will have lounge access, but Gold will not. Obviously just a guess on my part. Another guess would be 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% status bonuses.
