If Pandu sticks on to any of these when he travels abroad , he will be fine and most airlines would require you to earn certain number of points during a calendar year, hence looking at it from another angle , a transcontinental round trip will be equivalent to Pandu making about 20 one way flights in India . Bottom line …. No worries .. if he were to go abroad for a few months. About 90 % of all airlines in the world are part of One World, Sky Team or Star Alliance.

One of the advantages of "frequent toggling" is that you keep collecting vouchers (you get them even when you down your level - because they come with the respective level - whether you came from a higher or lower level doesn't matter). That's probably a way of keeping you happy even if you are down-leveled. And hey - don't ruin my chances! :) What I did (or did not) mention to you was also that the airlines when you move a level – give you free upgrade vouchers (to business class) that you can use.
