I feel for the poor copywriter who had to put this completely useless marketing idea into a coherent piece of text...

It is most likely that all lounge staff will receive something like this..
And I thought that we need three morning stars to tame the lounge staff.

I'd like my stars like this ...

At the risk of being "on topic"

Status stars will have no impact on either the flight nor airport experience

But they decided to introduce them because some customers seem to want them (or something similar), e.g. SEN and HON luggage tags and old HON cards sold on eBay.

I offered an explanation in another thread when the star news came out.

Translation - Our marketing (we even have an ex-facebook witch doctor now) says every app these days is rated or rates stuff with stars. You know you throw well the bird against the pigs you can reach 3 stars. Younger demographic demands it.
Again we didn't have much, nor really thought it through, but the next news are pretty crappy so we needed another positive bullet point.
Here is the appointment of the Mktg head.
