That's despite being platinum, gold, 1K etc. on 6 US airlines at different times. That's what I get for moving every two years. Fortunately I have a Lifetime Marriott Platinum elite card so that lessens some of the sting.
You can always shoot for AA lifetime based on CC spending etc and of course as an older flyer - LH's program is specifically designed for you
