Hi!
I'm not sure whether to post this in the HSBC credit card section or here.
I've got the HSBC Star Gold credit card and have aligned with Air Canada aeroplan. I signed up for the card in March 2024. I met the minimum spend to reach 50K status in April which will last the rest of this year and until the end of 2025.
I can't find a direct answer to this online but my question is regarding requalifying for status with the $60,000 spend. Through a combination of wedding, honeymoon and other expenses I think I will have met this spend soon also (but can pay with other means to not reach the $60,000 also).
If I meet this spend to requalify for Star Alliance Gold/Aeroplan 50K status will there be any benefit if I am already going to have 50K status until the end of next year?
Is there benefit if I hold of and wait for the $60,000 spend to be met at the start of next year.
This would be just before my 12 months of HSBC card ownership and into the 2nd calendar year of aeroplan 50K
Would it then re-trigger and give me status 2025 plus the following year (2026)?
Apologies if posted in the wrong section.
Any help is appreciated
