You know you are a former frequent flyer when...

[TonyHancock]

You can no longer remember:

the nato alphabet
your passport number
your frequent flyer number

when you phone up the gold guest list line at BA

 

[Hvr]

You no longer remember your favorite seat on all the planes in your airline.

Isn't that Griselda's job though?

 

[Guvner]

When allocated 28B on a trans-Tasman 737 is an agreeable outcome.

This thread is very applicable to me

Having taken 52 flights so far this year, I'm pleased to say I'm no longer a "former frequent flyer". But I do recall when I took my first flight after last year's long lockdown that I'd completely forgotten how to pack! It took me half a day to do what used to take 5 minutes, and I left quite a few things at home.

 

[Seat0B]

Very relevant to me too.
I have forgotten both my passport number and my FF number.
I have decided that I have no chance of making the necessary status credits to maintain WP, and I almost don’t care.
Triple points offers are not enough to motivate me to book a flight.
Probably double status credits also would not be enough to motivate me to book either .
I’m sure there are others…

My passport expired in February 2021 and I have yet to renew it...

When you have run out of the little bottles of shampoo and conditioner you got from hotels.

Oh no! That would be a shocker for me!

I still got several bags of the stuff and luckily started to fill them up again recently.

Since February 2020, I have only used my passport for linking government services on MyGov, and personal identification for buying a block of land and selling a property to finance that.

 

[Matt_01]

You do not care about maintaining status on a single airline let alone multiple programs and the same for hotel programs.

 

[drron]

We at least gave our passports a little trip to Norfolk Island in November last year.

 

[k_sheep]

You realise your passport will likely expire before it gets filled up for once.

 

[Archipelago]

After swearing off regional LCC's for life "NEVER AGAIN!!!", you find yourself actually missing Lion/AirAsia/Nok/JQ and their $50 international fares to hop around SE Asia

 

[Happy Trails]

You don't bother renewing your EF subscription.
Daily visits to FT and AusBT are now, perhaps, monthly. (AFF has, so far, been spared this ignominy).
Sunday nights and Monday mornings are no longer filled with a sense of dread.

Or it feels good to be able to fly JQ to get home.

 

[Tiki]

You stop buying Bunnings gift cards at a supermarket for 3x and just pay direct with the Amex.

No no no @drron. Straight to the AFF Hall of Shame for you.
