What happens if you reach a new status level - e.g., Gold - after you have booked a reservation? How do you get credit or upgrade eligibility for the new status? Will the PNR automatically "know" your new status or do you have to call AS and have them manually enter it?

You'll have to call in. Have them remove you FF number from the record(s) and then put them back in. Give it about a week after your new status shows up in your My Account.

Made MVPG on Sunday coming home from SAN. Status is showing on the website, but no email yet. Currently at 40,955. Should finish the year at 42,283 after the Christmas trip to BIL, only trip planned for December.
Normal travel patterns have me getting MVP easily, but MVPG is a stretch. An extra transcon and/or Hawaii trip puts it within reach. I took a slightly unnecessary ATL trip earlier this month to put me over the top.
First time making it in November, and first time in a while making it two years in a row. Very happy to have it.

Our e-mails arrived today, and we had completed our flights on Saturday.
I haven't checked to see if the GGUs are in our accounts - better go do that!
Yep, 8 GGU's all cozy and snug and dated 12/31/2016.
AS, you are the BEST.

it should be date of travel, not date of posting, that controls status. i'd keep an eye on things just to be safe and save paper or electronic boarding passes and a screenshot of your account activity before the flight, but it should work fine.

On track for first-time MVP qualification this Friday flying PDX-BOS. Unfortunately it won't be reflected for a while, given that I'm still waiting for EK flights from the last two weekends to post.

I find myself now watching my miles towards million miler status, something I never ever imagined would be possible for me, but since I have flown over 660k it almost seems doable now. This was a big year for me, so far at 97k with 2 more trips booked normally while I do get 75k I do not go over 100k.

We're within ballpark of each other then ^
I'm tempted to do 100K a year for the next 3 to make it

And the agent said "just wait a couple weeks and it will reflect automatically".
Is she correct? Or should I call again and insist of having them remove-readd?

I asked a customer care agent at SEA about this last weekend, and she said that I'd have to have call in for the remove and readd.
