Hey, I buck the norm at a peachy 32 years old and having first made platinum when I was 25. Since then, a bit like my career I peaked too soon and have steadly flown less and less each year. This year I will only just renew my status.

184000 Plats and Golds sure does explain why you cant get an upgrade, forward seat on a flight or any space at all in a QF club on a weeknight.
