I am just a blue card holder. I usually only have one long haul a year and perhaps one or two domestic flights. I usually holiday in September and due to my year end date, 8th of September I never manage to get up to Bronze. At the moment I have 100 tier points which I will loose on the 8th September. My next flight is on the 16th September. If I have worked it out correctly it should be worth the 200 that would have taken me up to the 300 needed for bronze.

The 200 will then go onto next years points (I think). So I will need another 100. I am planning a trip to Orlando next September which I think just gives me 90 points so with one domestic flight that should take me to bronze at last I think.

What I want to know is does my return flight have to be before the 8th September or will I loose them all again?

Sorry for all the question I am pretty new to all this
