Re: How many top tier programs (Hotels, Airlines, CC's) are you in??

Should we be counting Platinum credit cards? Aren't they just offered rather than achieved? I have refused all offers from Amex for their platinum cards.

Anyway as for FF programs, I have not achieved top tier status anywhere. I am currently QF Gold and Velocity Silver, although I am a bee's donger from achieving Velocity Gold. My annual review date is November 30th and I need to take about 4 more flights (all at flexible fare level) to get there. I hope to be able to do it just in time.

Now that Velocity has status tiers, I'm not planning to split my travel between airlines any more and therefore won't take any domestic QF flights.

QFF Platinum
PC Gold (1,753 short of Platinum which should happen on 9 December in SIN)

I don't believe in Platinum credit cards or the exhorbitant annual fees required to have one....

John - what's "PC" mean?

I don't believe in Plat cards either, although I just received my QF Ultimate card (first year's annual fee $395 waived) to collect the 22,500 QFF points and plan to cancel it forthwith, probably even without bothering about the free QF flight.

It seems that PC is probably the better Hotel loyalty Scheme going around for Oz based residency/travel at the moment.

I intend to use my Honors Gold to get comped a similar status in PC into the new year.

In terms of point collection it is better (which is fine by me ). If you are looking at recognition and extra things thrown in, other programs seem to be more generous.
