Do Any Programs Still Have a "Soft Landing"
About 10 years ago when I stopped traveling for work, I was EP on AA. They had a "soft landing" where you would only drop one level each year if you didn't re-qualify for the same status instead of dropping you all of the way back down to just a member the next year. I believe the hotel programs did this also.

Does anyone know if this is still the case or if you drop straight back down to the bottom tier if you don't re-qualify for any status?
