Emirates setting up for *A entry?
So with Emirates and SriLankan starting their FF program ( http://www.emirates.com/ind_media.asp?pressId=180 it MAY appear they are setting themselves up for *A entry. The started three tiers with the top two being named Silver and Gold. Okay, I know I am reading A LOT into this...but what are others thoughts? Admittedly they partnered with a wide group: UA, BA, CO, SAA)

The only differences the Gold and Silver member of the new Emirate and SriLankan FF program are an extra 4 kg of baggage allowance and the access to lounges across both airlines' network instead of just the lounges in Dubai and Columbo. That isn't that attractive though!
