Confirmed: PPS values do matter for op-ups

[LionCity]

I was talking to some of the SQ staff on the ticketing and reservation side and I mentioned that the new system of op-up was based on PPSV of the current year between two QPP. Their response was that it was still based on number of years and it was captured by their system and not current PPSV.

Frankly, I am still not sure which system they are actually applying.

Or maybe it means you need a more generous employer?

I'm sure a certain SQTalk LPP is willing to entertain offers for the supplementary card. What is it worth to you? ...

The silence of the ... is practically deafening!

100,000 bum-in-seat miles in Y in 4 months ? Ouch!

SORRY SQ LPP - my whining takes this thread OT so I promise I'll make it short. Okay given the tricky booking situation at times and constraints in the SQ network some flights were on LH, SK, & TG.

4 x SIN-FRA-HEL-FRA-SIN
1 x SIN-BKK-ARN-CPH-HEL-CPH-BKK-SIN
1 x HEL-FRA-LIS-FRA-HEL
1 x HEL-FRA-CCS-FRA-HEL
1 x HEL-FRA-MXP-FRA-HEL
3 x SIN-BKK-SIN
1 x SIN-CGK-SIN

Coming up in May - August
- more SIN-FRA-HEL RT's
- SIN-DME-SIN
- SIN-MXP-SIN
- flights in Europe from/ to HEL(L)
- HEL-FRA-CCS-FRA-HEL
- JFK (either from HEL or SIN)
- others I don't know of yet - likely SIN-DXB-SIN and others

Aiyoh - and all in Y

[jhm]

When I return to SIN by the end of April I will have passed 100K flown miles in Y since the beginning of the year

Tell me about it. Now that I finally got promoted to a level where I'm allowed to fly C when travel is over 6hrs I get a project for a top global client who flies everyone below a Sr. VP in Eco and insits on us confirming with the same travel policy. Great stuff

Hmm, well let me think about what I could offer ... hmmm

[jjpb3]

yes I mean for supplementary LPP status . When I return to SIN by the end of April I will have passed 100K flown miles in Y since the beginning of the year so wouldn't that mean I'm really needy and would make the most of it?

Okay so I need to start looking for a donor ... no I'm not ill ... yes I mean for supplementary LPP status . Kind of beats my KF *S . When I return to SIN by the end of April I will have passed 100K flown miles in Y since the beginning of the year so wouldn't that mean that I'm really needy (yes please start feeling sorry for me - NOW) and that I would make the most of it? So??? Ohh well ...

[stargold]

I still wouldn't say no

If I ever "marry" someone with LPP status, that's definitely going into the pre-nup for me to keep in all eventualities

"You can keep the house, my dear, but I'm keeping your Supplementary LPP!!!"

[SQ LPP]

In the back of the card, there is a word "Supplementary."

[taipeiflyer]

yes they know. my god-dad is a LPP, and my god-brother has the supplementary card. they definitely know who was the "bread winner" even when flying separately. however, that certainly doesn't mean that my god-brother doesn't get treated equally as well.

[wdranne]

Just curious, does anyone know if the check-in agent has any idea if a person is a supplementary card holder or is it just reflected as 'TPP' or 'LPP'?

[SQ LPP]

That makes sense, so they don't have current PPSV as well then?

SQ probably will track it for their internal accounting & reporting purposes anyway.

In the profile, for LPP, cumulative PPSV is zero, but CURRENT PPS Value is being tracked. For example, at the moment I have passed 25K mark.

I believe that LPP has 0 cumulative PPSV as it has no bearing / meaning to them. They don't have to requalify or bother about it so why track it?

[SuperJonJon]

Does the mean you were joking? (I thought LPP has cum PPSV just like other PPS members?)

And BTW, for LPP, the cumulative PPS Value is zero.
