OP,

Take a mileage run to get over 70K and be back to Plat. You can then hope that the exception rule for Lifetime Plat kicks in. (Unless you used to qualify for Plat on segments)

Hi Geneva Flyer. Just as a point of clarification, Golds are receiving promotions at the moment. It is double miles (status and earning) on all flights to the end of the year

Presumably the OP hasn't been targetted for this as, being so close to the 70K threshold, double miles wouldn't be a big incentive in taking another flight. Might be worth calling FB to try to get the promo though, extra miles are extra miles after all
