Among smaller changed, so they've dropped buggy service for regular DMs, but from 2027 DMEs will get buggy + a companion (which is finally useful, since it's kinda pointless if traveling w others). Seems sensible.

DMs also losing the F upgrade privilege but getting auto 2 to begin with. Whereas DMEs get the 4 regular old style DM coupons.

I hope they revert to make these DME upgrade coupons good to use for A fare now! Instead of the game they turned it into now.

I'm pretty sure this is a big upgrade for myself, although I will need to be a bit more loyal to CX than present (I currently stop around 1800, now will be 2400 I think), seems worth it. Glad they spelled these out too.

Just hope they don't diminish the regular DM experience on board for those who don't go above 1200. dM has been such a great calling card for CX, underappreciated but remarkable.

And DM reserve, awesome!!! I'm approaching 20 years consecutive well over the points minimum every year (although it seems only the last 10 years will count). This is like moving towards lifetime DM right
