Why frequent flyer programmes matter

Concentrating your flights with one airline alliance can be more valuable than any credit card. Elite status unlocks lounge access across dozens of airlines worldwide, free upgrades, priority boarding, and bonus miles. For premium lounges like Cathay First, Emirates First, or Qantas First, frequent flyer status is often the only way in.
