That didn’t take long, I had my Silver Elite status for a year and I just didn’t rack enough flights, I needed to earn 25,000 miles in that time to qualify for another year – I missed by a couple of thousand points. That was really disappointing, that would have helped a lot  for my next round of bookings.

Oh well, it doesn’t hurt that much anyway. There was no priority boarding, no lounge access and no upgrades so I wasn’t worried. I actually took some domestic flights with Virgin that would have gotten me over the line, oh well, not to worry. It would have given me more flight miles, this would have upgraded me to the next level again – oh well.
