I will now reveal to you that I, too, am a member of the exclusive, elite
Concierge Key Club. I received word of it in a congratulatory letter about a
year or so ago. I don't recall getting a card, but I probably have it
somewhere. I was very happy to be inducted into this august group, and very
curious about the new perks and privileges my newfound status would carry
with it. I couldn't wait to find out. I am still waiting.
As far as I can tell, membership in this, the most elevated in the American
Airlines frequent flyer cadre, grants you the following:
* An occasional greeting at the gate when you check in. One time, they
paged me from the podium. I went up to find out what it was all about,
fearing I had been bumped or something. No, there was an American Airlines
representative with a clipboard at the little kiosk that scans the tickets.
"Hello," she said. "I just wanted to tell you how happy we are that you are
flying with us." I said thanks. She inquired whether I would like to board
with the people in wheelchairs. I said not really. She said goodbye.
* Now and then, this same sort of official actually boards the plane
itself after we are seated, approaches me and once again expresses pleasure
that I am with them. I say thank you. He or she says no problemo and
inquires if there is anything they can do for me. One time, I asked, "Like
what?" The greeter said, "Well, nothing, really." Then we had a chuckle and
that was that. Those were the good old days, too. In fact, this greeting
phase has abated almost entirely now. The other day I was grieved to see
another business type getting the schmooze while I sat by myself,
unrecognized as a Key Club dignitary. This pissed me off a lot more than it
should have.
* No upgrades.
* No priority in getting a reservation.
* No actual, physical "Club" that one can visit.
* No presents, not even the luggage tags that one is awarded each year
as an Executive Platinum person.
* Some limited help getting rebooked when your flight is cancelled, but
only when you know the guys in the Admiral's Club, which remains a very nice
entity which I appreciate every time I travel. Hi, Admiral's Club dudes!
Keep up the good work!
* The ability to impress random fellow-travelers with your Key Club card
, resulting in passionate one-time hookups in moderately-priced chain motels.
