Substituting Pax on a Status Run?

[power71]

Due for a status run soon however not really keen on the 6 sector flight. Do you think that if I complete an online or lounge check-in, and are issued with the boarding passes, that the SC's will still post if I do not board 2 of the flights? Alternatively, do you think I can "gift" the flights (i.e hand the boarding passes) to someone else to travel (without checked baggage) on my behalf?

Well if you don't board the plane then you won't be credited for the flights and any remaining flights on the same PNR will be cancelled.

As for the latter course, I wouldn't do it, so no further comment from me.
