    Upgrading and Requalifying Platinum One Week Apart

    From my recent experience SQ is very quick to post SC. Flew with them on 23rd December, SC were posted on 24th, and Virgin reviewed and upgraded my status on 25th December. So even the Christmas period didn't really delay anything. So hopefully all will be ok for you
