Can someone explain what is meant by 'age related discrimination' on PFL and what is considered young/old for platinum or PFL?
I'm working towards PFL and would assume I'm closer to the 'young' end but not sure and not clear on why it matters (beyond the obvious).

This might have something to do with the fact that they tend to stick around longer...

Does that mean they remove platinum status to some PFL members? On what grounds?

Also, as Xandrios noted above, all our PFL plans hold while Flying Blue exists in its current form. Given how precarious AF financials are, I wouldn’t bet it’s still going to be there 10 years from now.

I have been fortunate enough to have been PFL since Day 1.
Sometimes acknowledged while travelling, sometimes not.
However I called the PFL number to enquire if I could get two Virgin Upper Class Award seats on a particular day as nothing was showing . 100% result. Flying in two weeks time.
I can't be sure that was down to PFL but I wouldn't have got them otherwise I don't think.

I have just become PLF and made my first trip as PLF. experience: nothing different to Platinums. Was traveling KL long haul as a family of 4.
I have seen in the past that others thatjust became PLF received a €200 voucher from KL and a special welcome to the club. Nothing here for me. I guess that is the new way or have other received sone kind of recognition?

Was just wondering if it was common practice for AF/KL to give something or not. Since you got CAD 200 and I have seen it in the past happen as well, I guess it was common practice.
The yearly new pair of tags has come to an end as well. This year you will not receive them any more. From now on you only get them when you become PLF and not yearly.

Next month I will be flying AF again after a three years break. For my flights I will get plenty of miles and also some XP. Here is my question: as a Platinum For Life what do I need the XPs for? I can use miles for various rewards, but what can I use XPs for?
