*A giving instant status for silver and gold.

I hope *A do a bit of tightening up on qualification requirements compared to the status match they did with UK OW elite flyers. Seems that was pretty disastrous in terms of cost vs. actual loyalty earned. Well, at least to LH.

*A already being too focused (JMHO) on breadth as it has been, I think it doesn't need more spurious 'frequent flyers'.

Interesting, though, that SQ is participating this time.

I doubt they would use something like that. A mailing address should be suffice. Anyone tried it yet?

Not sure about that. They might need your HK resident ID number? (can't remember exctly what they call it).

You have to be living in Hong Kong though...and fly by Dec 15th!

Or have a HK mailing address presumably?

With the rumoured changes that will take place for KF (for the better hopefully), maybe, just maybe, KF Gold is perhaps worthwhile yet again? Hmm.....

Will I get upgrade vouchers? I'm BD*G through Feb next year but it is unlikely for me to requalify... which FFP should I be comped to?

Nothing wrong with earning instant status though!
