What is Invitation tier?
This tier includes two groups of people. The first are those who prior to the revamp of the Marco Polo Club in the late 1990s had Lifetime tier, earned by flying a certain number of miles within a certain time period. Such members were transferred to the Invitation tier but essentially enjoy lifetime membership. The second group are those which Cathay have targeted as desirable passengers. This group usually includes celebrities or those which they feel would be useful contacts. Invitation membership may be revoked from this group at the discretion of the Loyalty Manager.
