Thanks for the example, this gives another path to gold, and I will update my post with this info!
In my son's case, because he didn't come in right at the 4000 miles (he went over by 1194), the flight that got him to Blue was also his first miles accruing flight on the previous (Blue) tier.

I'm not sure what would happen if someone were to hit 4000 miles exactly to obtain Blue status and then wait some period of time before they took another flight. I would guess that the 12 month period to qualify for Gold would start from when the next flight was taken (as long as they still had Blue status when they took the next flight) but who knows?

Might be awhile before we get all of the scenarios figured out since the program is still relatively new!
