Do you want to enjoy all the benefits of elite status at your favorite

Every week I see a post or a picture in one of the frequent flyer communities of someone celebrating their Million Miler status with one of the legacy carriers. Often the elated and relieved poster will recall countless years and flights it took to achieve the milestone. This is followed by congratulatory remarks, memes, and GIFs from onlookers who themselves recall their personal victory or their current journey towards that goal.

If you have to fly from Point A to Point B—whether for business or for pleasure—wouldn’t you like to be comfortable doing so?
