So long, BMI. We will miss you.
The wonder of cash and miles.
The joy of a late-night call to Pune.
The delight of a zone 2 to zone 7 redemption, via zone 8.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.
Fear not though, great airline of yesteryear, your legacy shall live on.
Your superior bag tags still adorn the loyalty cards of today.
Your logo still permeates the British Airways A321 mid-haul in-flight entertainment.
Farewell, BMI, my old friend.
1964 - 2012. RIP.

It's been fun - my introduction to the benefits of FFPs, my first status match and my first gold card (that was a slippery slope!). Thanks to all at DC and BMI who made this possible, and thanks to all posters on the BMI board for great conversation along the way. May the spirit of the DC live on in other *A programmes, and the best of the BMI board be found in other fora!

Will it close GMT time or one of the American variants?
Will there really be a mod on here at 12.00.01 on the 1/1/14 to shut the board down? And I thought my NYE was quiet!!
