Hello,
Very long term lurker, I've learnt so much and wish my first post could have been helpful info for others and not a question...or a hope for reassurance!
Basic story is:
1. Gold renewal due 08/05, to re qualify I needed 80 sc and 4 flight segments
2. Looked at a straight status run OOL/SYD/MEL return, priced out at approx $1,100....ouch!
3. Young grandson in Arizona....BNE/SYD/LAX return, sale on and about same price. Hit all requalifying marks.
4. Outbound BNE/SYD cancelled (storm in Sydney) re-routed BNE/LAX.
Return home today, 40 sc's for the outbound have posted. I ring the gold help desk and ask for the original booking flight segments, in particular, and sc's to be credited. The help desk can't help and I need to email in the request, which I have done.
i guess my question is, what is the likelihood of this happening? When today's flights post I'll have the 400 sc's, but now be 1 flight segment short. Yes....I know I shouldn't have left this until the last minute. If a panic situation is required I could throw in a OOL/SYD/OOL on Thursday, which is the day before review date.
My jet lagged brain is bleeding :shock:
