LY Outreach To DD Over Devaluation Post

[churnbabychurn]

I said I've never done it but would consider it.

You most definitely can and should charge them as a consultant. Big time!
You have much more exposure to global travel, airlines and milage programs than the people sitting in a tlv board room...

[MeirS]

We covered:
-What AMEX pays LY for points
-What happened with AA.
-What happened with HAS
-Future of B6 reciprocity.
-Future mileage partners.
-Upcoming US co-brand card.
-Expiration policies/breakage
-Rationale behind J/F increases
-Upcoming reduced award promo
-Difference between airlines that can effectively tap the US cc market
-Who's booking LY F
-YQ
-Saver/standard awards
-Upcoming LY website redesign
-Loyalty of paid vs award customers
-LY point system origins

And more. My issue is I don't really know what I can say here about that...

Thanks
That's a good start

He wanted to know if I do consulting services.

unless they commit to do as you recommend it would just be a way to shush your criticism imo

On which of the above 16 points did you already agree with him before you spoke to him, on how many did you agree with him after talking with him and on how many of them do you still disagree?

Will you help them revamp their brand?

[chff]

Maybe this LY FFP discussion should be in a separate thread?

Especially as this is getting more and more interesting

We talked about a real J/F redesign as well. It's coming. Supposedly.

I can imagine that advertising that "Daniel Eleff of DansDeals.com will be joining our team" will do a lot to promote the brand in certain demographics...

Are you going to mention anything at the seminar ?

Feel free to come to the Q&A and ask.
I found some of the stuff pretty interesting, but I'm a geek like that. Nothing earth shattering.

They just ''redesigned'' and we saw what that entailed not sure what their next ''revamp'' will be

Quick Google search shows that's public. But still cool!

[smart brit]

Any chance they will join a alliance?
Doubt it

[chucksterace]

Can you say what happened with AA. Can we close that story

[Dan]

Doubt it

Seemingly no.
But I encouraged him strongly to look into FFP tie-ups with other airlines such as AS.
