I've have been at least Prem Exec for the last 5 years and its killing me knowing I won't get the double miles next year. Since I always fly the cheapest possible flights, that's been much more important to me than the upgrades.

I did lock in the 10,000 miles for the quarter with a trip to Tokyo over Thanksgiving.

I get the feeling you might find yourself losing your E+ seating if you lost all your status.
