Totally agree. People who spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on credit cards are already flying business. And 2024 will definitely see a lot less 1Ks, I have a close group of colleagues that were all 1K this year (18k PQP requirement last year) but didn't get even close to reaching the 24k requirement for 2024.
