One more bit of advice for them that doesn’t affect me personally: they really ought to restore HA’s 30/60 segment qualification for the first two status levels. Losing that is going to upset a lot of people for very little benefit.
But...... now you only need to fly 40/80, if you choose earnings by segments. When 100K first arrived and segments were still a metric for qualification, 100K required 140 segments. Today, they are asking you to fly 270 segments for Titanium, whether 100 miles or 5,000miles.
If you are flying by distance, your 100 mile HNL-OGG flight is earning 80% less SPs,
and 80% less MM miles. There are many flights in Alaska that are a fraction of 100 miles & BLI-SEA is 92 in the CONUSA.
