I am glad they left the 25K AMEX waiver in.

So its Travelers with children or require special assistance > premium passengers > sky priority > zone 1 > zone 2 > zone 3

Sounds like it will take forever to board, what happened to simplicity? It's not like the GA follow these rules anyway

This thread might not be the correct location but i see that my 2016 membership level is "2016 skymile member"..... Hope thats an error. Unless there's another unannounced benefit change coming up. Im a 1.5 MM.

There is no change here. They have had these zones for quite a while. So how does having DMs in with prem make the process now "take forever"?

What is "simplicity"? Your BP has a zone, and you board in it.

Mine still shows me "2016 Skymiles Member". My 1.5 MM means nothing.

For silvers, Our Beloved Masters changed the EC/C+ rules so that *all* EC/C+ are free at T-24, including international. The tradeoff is that the meager discounts we got when we had to pay for EC/C+ seats at T-24.00000001 (50% domestic and 25% intl, IIRC) is now 0%. This change was unrolled as part of the announcement of C+ a few months ago.

The amount of spend required for the waiver might increase, but the waiver isn't going away.

What is the difference between an Individual SC Membership and and Executive Membership? It's still the overcrowded club, isn't it? Same popcorn?
