THANKS JOHAN-

Below is summary of key pints from link:

I must admit I underestimated KLM on the conversion. But it looks like status via segments could be in danger. Better to have good news/bad news than bad news/bad news.

Four valuable points:

1. The conversion rate is approx 1.8 mile per point to mile you have in yr account.

2. RW members will be given Platinum Elite Cards for the first year, longer if they qualify already with FD points for future years ( ie multiples of 24,000 points.) Silver members will be given Gold Elite, & those almost reaching silver will get a silver card.

3. Platinum elite members will get a 100% bonus on service miles on all flights.

4. You will need 75,000 +flight miles each annum measured 31st Dec each year to renew to Platinum Elite. Business class earns x 2 rates of mileage for service & awards.
