Does anyone think it's a good idea for the words "elite" and "status" to be dropped from all rewards programs? There are way to many members, even if they are a minority, who think they're nobility.

I think they should double down on it. Prefer we be addressed at check in as M’Lord or M’Lady and escorted to my exit row seat with a “this way, Your Grace”...possibly kick the wheelchair passenger on the way with an “out of the way peasant!” The more things change the more they remain the same... everyone still wants to feel better about themselves
