Of course, I still fly in and to the USA quite a bit, so I can use the benefits, but overall I'm much happier with the communication from AA, the available benefits and the usefulness of them. I have upgrade coupons available with LA for years that I never used, but I'm 11/11 flights on AA last year, and have never had a problem using miles for an award.

The one thing that had me considering Lanpass over AA (I'm still banking everything at AS) has just gone - New Rule - AA won't let you in the AC for domestic US trips no matter your other-airline OW status.

regarding comodoro vs. premium silver - in case you are not travelling solely within the americas you can get into very nice first class lounges. LHR, HKG and SYD come to my mind ... |

I'll come back and check the other country sites later today. And how is it reasonable to make these changes 1 month into the year? It is like they have had time to analyze the data, looked at the elite numbers and made adjustments to qualifying levels? |

how are you and yours holding up Andrea?
Funny thing is that some km from late last year didn't post and I requested them a couple of weeks ago. When they posted, they now show up under 2013 (but with 0 segments)... he seems to have rolled over some kms without intending to. I also had to fill out the form for mom's flights: they posted but haven't rolled over to 2013 (they don't show up in the Summary of activities valid for qualifying for superior member categories for 2012 or 2013) ---------- For countries other than Perú I've only noticed the some pages haven't changed and but most mention that TAM segments / kms are now qualifying. other changes Premium Silver (others) to 40.000 km + 6 medium or long haul segments on LAN / TAM Business Comodoro (others) to 80.000 km + 8 medium or long haul segments on LAN / TAM Business The site is so inconsistent... Some country-sites use a different URL, they have headings that change color midpage, missing headings (two ways of qualifying get stuck under one heading, like on this page), mentions that the page was updated in 2010 or 2011 when there have been recent updates... I could go on, but it's exhausting. Good night everyone! I'll keep track to check if the rest of the pages are updated. |
Poor folks in AR: According to the new page there is no longer any shortcut to Premium Silver OR Comodoro!!! :eek:

ˇThat´s insane!

I take it back. On closer inspection it does appear that the shortcuts are still there but they are hidden inside the paragraph about qualifying on segments alone so who knows. Bottom line, LAN has done a shockingly sloppy job (even by their usual low standards) of updating the LanPass web pages to reflect changes.

Just in case, the country-sites still showing the 2012 rules for Premium Silver and Comodoro are Argentina, Uruguay (these 2 have the heading problem), France and Spain. Hopefully updates will be done soon. |

Not only sloppy but a bit late and unethical - changing things a month into the year! They should be obliged to give a notice well before the year start.

Well, actually, the LANPASS year starts on March 31st, so it's more like a month and a half ahead...
