Re colored CC - the black Diners (AY Plat) with silver printing was the coolest around.

Me personally I will renew Lumo should e.g. another X3 campaign be gifted to us, but spending 10 000 eur on Business Flex long-haul returns just for Lumo will get a pass. Maybe if there's other reasons for that kind of flying then the Lumo as an additional bonus might tilt the scales again .

Probably most people who are Lumo have done this or something very similar, FT gives a very skewed picture (3x bonus takers this year and segment runners in normal years)

Most high-tier FFs are flying with their employers money.

flown leisure to LUMO

next time probably look for 3x bonus.
i agree that most LUMOs are corporate travellers.

But currently when even Platinum Wing is open during occasional hours, no LUMO car and low award space availability gonna wait for some improvements.

Asked WA for Lumo luggage tags, but none are available. According to Janica, they have stopped producing them.

They do, since a holder of them carries along a bag of newspapers!

The tags were available in July 2022 at least. I have one extra. It's a pity if they aren't available anymore, and hopefully this will change. FinnairPlus

My question was who spends 10k € C Flex just for Lumo or whose employer finances that the employee receives Lumo.

Then, are segment runners skewed or what:?

I agree. My +1 wants to push to Plat (9k points remaining, easy) just for the tags. Not sure who is the bigger idiot between us?

I got (Plat) tags in the summer too.
Recently I tried to get AY+ junior plastic card, but those weren't in production anymore, I explained that my son was too young for a smartphone.
I doubt jr. would ever need the plastic card, but would be cool to have it for him. Who knows, maybe he needs to bring a statusless grandparent to the lounge at some point 😂
