Call me when you are at least platinum on 2 airlines. Keep in mind that status only means something because we are all delusional about the quality of lives we lead.

I got diamond last year just barely... I'm neither getting it nor want it again this year. Platinum is quite nice, and so is not flying so much that you get any higher status 🙂

Awesome! Welcome, friend!

Haha agreed ! I don't intend to achieve diamond either. My goal behind going platinum has always had the following reasoning - I fly enough times in a month that it's valuable to get priority standby and a comfortable commute when possible.

Platinum at AA = gold at delta

Platinum elite Marriott, platinum delta, platinum spg, platinum pro AA, diamond Hilton 😎

Hahahaha that's awesome EY 4. Status match helped me get Hilton although I rarely stay there. If your goal is to redeem fro vacations stuck to one hotel chain. And Marriott and spg match automatically.
