Last 1,000 EQM to status graciously offered..???

Hello all,

My understanding, if not wrong, is that for the two past years, FB generously granted the status if we were within 1,000 EQM to the next threshold.

Although it was never been official but at the discretion of FB, does anybody know if this perk will be reconducted this year again? I'm pretty curious if FB will be that generous again after all the shrinkage of benefits recently...

All the best,

They didn't do it last year, and the year before it was only for people who needed a few hundred miles IIRC. I wouldn't count on it!

It has been done last year only (not the year before). And as Alan, I would not count on it for this current year !!

Thanks for the reply fellows. As for me, it's OK, I already requalified Plat. I was just wondering because a friend of mine will be close and I don't want to communicate wrong information...

cheers,
