Due to my company policy, I could only fly on Economy class. But, I prefer to travel on Singapore Airlines (patriot). Since I am based in US/Taiwan, I fly transpacific or transatlantic almost every week, mostly on SQ or Star Alliance if possible.

Last year before Christmas, I gave SQ Krisflyer a call to ask for PPS status due to my frequent travel pattern. However, during that time, they refused to upgrade me to PPS. I told them that one of the reason I asked is to get PPS benefits on the ground and priority waitlisting. I know it is unfair to those who fly on F/C class but I have flown almost 250K EQM (Elite Qualifying Miles) last year before Christmas. If I am flying on C class, I am probably Solitare by now.

Do you know whether SQ will upgrade the PPS status (in the profile) for me? I really hope so because I am considering to change to UA 1K program/ Air France & KLM which have better benefits (100% Bonus Miles, Free Upgrades).

I hope you guys could help me to answer that...

Thanks.
