I just called Aegean. You can forget the 'normal' times for miles postage. They told me they need around 2 weeks nowadays from Lufthansa and any other airline due to transition of the systems.
Also, Q class from Lufthansa is broken, if you flew with LH on a Q class ticket and still don't have your miles in your account please call them as they need to manually process these, their system says Q is not elligable for miles' gain.

My LH flights posted finally (not all but enough for hitting the 20k mark). I sent all boarding passes to M&B in an email. Don't know if this helped or if LH just solved the problem.

TG miles delayed posting
Did anyones miles from TG-flights taken after November 15th post already?
I'm still waiting for mine to post (flown on November 15th and 23rd), to take me to Gold on old earning rules (just in time). TG miles should post in 2-4 days, but I have heard rumors that miles flown lately, on any *A-partner, could take up to two weeks to post to A3 now, but I just wanted to check with others what they might have experienced in the last few days.

Now I'm trying to retro claim the flights on the new (partial) website, but keep getting errors. To be honest, really frustrating as I've already been gold for some time just the miles did not post yet. I should have been gold from beginning of October!

My UA flights 17NOV, 19NOV, and 20NOV doesn't seem to be posted yet. With these flights, I would be Gold. When I log in, it doesn't stay logged in. Anybody else having problems with login and mile posting times? I'm still Blue and have a *A flight in a week and half. Hoping that I can somehow be upgraded to Gold before then. 2 of my flights were bulk order flights whatever that means, does that make a difference?

hiima, my UA flights from November 19 and November 20 (which would bring me to gold) haven't posted yet either. My flights from November 15 and before posted within around 3 days, so I'm hoping this is just due to their IT system transition. I'm also having issues with staying logged in on the website, so I think I'll just give it a few days for them to fix all their website issues before trying again.

I would wait 2 weeks, hoping that their new site normalizes and I think at the moment they get more that enough mails per day...

I would really like to be upgraded by 4DEC, since I have a *A flight that day, but I guess I shouldn't get my hopes up.

Am in the same boat (with the missus anyway). TG flights have now posted, should have been enough to upgrade missus to gold, however still showing as silver. I'll probably wait a week or two to contact them.

Flights with LH on 25 Nov and 28 Nov
Miles credited today (1st Dec)
(Quite fast in my case)
However, interesting to note that they treated my LH flights between ZRH and FRA as domestic flights rather than European cross border...
