Thanks for the clarification and correction. So the reciprocity has been normalized to the same level. Unfortunately to the lowest level benefit, rather than the higher benefit level. Par for the course in the environment today. For me, my hotel status level has always been much higher than my airline status since I also do a lot trips driving rather than flying. So I am no worse off with the change. Can always dream about it getting better.... Of course pigs might be flying and there might be a nice cool breeze in h*ll too....
