Sorry if its already obvious, but if this means that the lifetime morning calm status remains part of the program? did not seem see it in the language

Ah classic Korea. The president criticizes KE for deval, the head of Department of Transportation thanks KE for making his miles worthless, and the company backs down.

Yes, as of now.

I'm sorry if I missed it earlier, but you mean that KE Slypass had prior and currently granted lifetime status and was intending on taking it away?!?!

Under the now-suspended new programme, those who already hold lifetime status would be grandfathered into the new statuses - Morning Calm Premium would be lifetime gold and Milion Miler would be lifetime platinum (don't exactly remember but it's 1 step below the highest tier).

Has anyone been able to redeem Saudia First awards using KE miles recently? Seems like J is wide open but never F... wonder if KE is secretly blocking F award inventory.

...For now. Once they've bribed the right people and greased the right hands, they'll start slow-rolling these changes again.
