Ironically AA also gives out CK membership to people who fly and spend 10% of what this guy did. The majority of CK members i feel like are granted status through some sort of business connection.

Ha! Good data point. Definitely it's along the lines of $50K and above for the revenue-CKs, but, as we all know, many different ways to spend $50K and many different ways to earn 150K BIS while doing so.

Never really paid too much attention to the CK stuff since I'm nowhere near that level, but surprised to hear the $50k figure. That's like 10 international biz tickets. Not chump change by any means, but given the air of exclusivity and mystique, I presumed that the barriers would be higher than taking one business trip per month.

I don't think it is an exact science but I'm also not worried about it either.
