That's where I'm confused... Nisse, above, confirms what I understood... hitting 50k
after reaching Silver which means a total of 75k miles for Gold.
But you're saying 25k extra after reaching Silver (which makes the total 50k).
Looking at my account, I see that my Elite Miles is back down to zero, with a little notch half way up that reads
To renew Elite Silver status: 25,000 and another notch at the end of the meter that reads
To qualify for Elite Gold: 50,000
All this in addition to the 25k I already flew...
