The ramifications of walking away from status.
For many years Hunki and I have held top status on UA, AS, SPG and HH. This year, however, we are very seriously considering walking away from AS MVPG, although we will still both make MVP. This is a very hard decision. We have loved AS, but the program has gone so far down hill that it no longer makes any sense for us.

What are the ramifications that the rest of you have experienced in walking away from top status on your programs, other than the obvious decline in upgrades. One of my biggest concerns is that if we are only MVP, we will not even bother and drop to basic member status. This will mean that we are limited to only 50,000 credit card miles each, per year as basic members.

Are there other things we should consider?
