A Level above Gold
 

Does anyone else agree that there should be an additional level in the Skywards program e.g Gold Plus or Platinum with enhanced features such as First Class Lounge access, increased mileage to name a couple. I am sat at a level with Gold confirmed for next year already so where is the incentive to keep travelling with Emirates for the next 6 months?

because as a "gold" your chances for operational upgrades are quite good..

because you will get bonus miles at the end of the year, when you fly more than 50 000 miles...(not too many)

because you like to fly Emirates...

Well, I'm in a similar position to WOS and I think it's a great idea!
By the way, the e-gate benefit for EK Gold is great, I really advise all who haven't signed up to do so.
