When the new tier points system was announced I was pretty pessimistic about the whole thing, so I was surprised to get over the line in December.
I took three trips, two were transatlantic going out in WTP and back in CW/CE, and one was a Vueling trip to Europe. There were 11 flights in total.
The base points alone wouldn’t have given me enough, so the bonus points were essential.
There were a lot of doomsayers when the changes were announced, but it’s not actually been that bad at all for myself at least.
I’m over halfway to gold including the Amex PP bonus points, much further away than I have been in previous years but I’m more than happy keeping the silver benefits.
