SQ status on Star Alliance boarding passes?
First time I have seen my TPPS/Solitaire status printed on a non-SQ Star Alliance boarding pass? Normally you get the SQXXXXXXX and SQ*G
TAM certainly never used to include all of this info. Not sure why either as TPPS status is not recognised/a benefit in Star Alliance as far as I understood, only the Star Alliance Gold part...?
Obviously had no positive impact to the flight
That said... with TAM on my domestic runs between GRU and GIG/SDU TAM Red Card holders and Star Alliance Gold members are regularly allocated the business seating (as domestic flights have no business class). Had this "semi-upgrade" many times when these seats are not full of crew being shipped back and forth. Will sadly lose this benefit sooner or later as the TAM merger with LAN (LATAM group) will no doubt mean a move to OneWorld
