This may be of interest to some - Aegean Alirlines, now a Star Alliance partner, only require 4,000 miles to reach Blue level (Star Silver) and a further 16,000 to reach Gold within their Miles&Bonus programme, thereby totalling 20,000 flown miles for Star Gold status. From a quick read of the T&Cs, if you hold an Aegean partner credit card, you are automatically given Blue status, so this total may reduce to only 16,000 flown miles for *G.
Almost seems too good to be true - I'm sure there will be downsides relating to redemption etc., but on the face of it, it seems to be about the easiest programme to achieve status with. Any tips/comments welcome
EDIT This may well require further scrutiny, as from a scan read of the T&Cs I came across the following: "Miles can be earned on flights performed by Aegean or Lufthansa"
