Speculation: What will be the abbreviation for Platinum Pro?
 
FT is obsessed with abbreviations, and using them in type and in spoken language.

Concierge Key is CK
Executive Platinum is EXP
Platinum is PLT
Gold is GLD

I'm sure AA will have to come up with their own standard code of Platinum Pro. If you were the person in charge, what would you choose?

I'm going with PLP, because it looks so attractive.

PP. I echo most folks in saying PP is an exceedingly stupid sounding name.

cynicAAl Jun 6, 2016 11:38 am

I like "PRO"

rjw242 Jun 6, 2016 11:40 am

PtP would be chemically accurate...

TrojanHorse Jun 6, 2016 11:40 am

P2 or 2P.. ok P2 :p

How about NO (not original)

pkfinman Jun 6, 2016 12:10 pm

PPR would be my guess

PP - my guess.

I like PRO as well. Will the exist in early 2017 (e.g. between now and the end of 2016 a flyer meets the miles and dollars) or will this not start to appear until well into 2017 when the first customers fly and spend the dollars beginning on January 1st 2017?

The latter.

Here on FT, where we aren't constrained to 3 characters, I like PLTP or PLT+.

It strikes me as exceedingly stupid and lacking in imagination to create 3(!!!) levels of Platinum.

Indeed. Tin, iron, aluminum, and titanium would've been more representative of the relative tier values.
