Eligible Sectors pre October 2025

[Lyra]

Hello, I’ve just completed my final eligible sector yesterday arvo - 29 September. I am currently Gold status and earned 1000 status credits earlier this year. I checked my account this morning (30 September) and this sector hasn’t been posted yet. Whilst I know it will count as an eligible sector for September, if they don’t review my account for Platinum today (30 September), does that mean they will use the new rules? I.e., they review the account for Platinum after 1st October, I don’t meet this 50% requirement so I don’t get upgraded? I think I’m going to call them later…

It might be time to go and read the VFF status upgrade page again. I think, not sure, but think that the 50% thing has been an active requirement since maybe April this year. I don’t think sectors matter any more.

I recently requal’d Plat and had the extra info on my VFF page for the past few months noting that not only did I need X more SCs to requal, but that Y more were needed on VA flights. When I hit the mark I’d got over the 50% self VA flights by maybe 30SC (the rest being EY international J and family pooling).
