If it's any consolation,
Coathanger, I think Elite Silver is my equilibrium tier.
Based on my travel patterns, I have to
really stretch to make Elite Gold, given that I'm based in a OneWorld hub. (But stretching is still under consideration, and if it happens, expect a visit in JKT,
StarG.) The award availability advantage given to KrisFlyer members makes sticking with KrisFlyer worth it ... for now.
Anyway, at least now you don't have to travel with a paper card now.

Can we persuade you to travel to the Bali DO 2006? I'm sure the others will be more than willing to bring you into the lounge as their guest.
