The ticketing carrier should then recognize the updated status in their reservation system. This normally works when a change of FF status has taken place after the original ticket has been issued.

Good luck!
It doesn't matter who's the ticketing carrier. BA and QF use Amadeus and AA uses Sabre, so there are 2 records. One needs to have 1) Amadeus recognise her PLT status (which can take time) and 2) get the Amadeus record updated by removing FF number, ER (End transaction and Redisplay, not End the Record, lol), re-adding FF number, and then ER again.
