Completely agree as it incentivises us to spend more and stay / fly more. It has worked well for me at least as I have done more stays than I planned to for the sake of the bonuses. Similarly, I would spend more money with bmi if the opportunity arose to be given a reward of legitimate value. (i.e. not a lounge pass or £0.38)
