Hey all.

I need about 9,250 more tier miles to reach silver status. I am travelling from LHE(Lahore)-Dubai(DXB)-Glasgow(GLA) on 16th June and on the return leg I am travelling from LHR(London Heathrow)-Dubai(DXB)-Karachi(KHI) on 28th-29th June. Since I am travelling on a saver fare I will earn 3750 tier miles as a result. I will then need 5500 tier miles to reach silver status. If I get my fare upgraded from saver to flex I earn 3750 tier miles more, hence needing 1750 more tier miles to reach silver.

If that happens, if I do a mile run from Karachi to Dubai on a saver fare, I will earn 1100 tier miles, hence needing 650 more tier miles to reach silver. If less than 1000 tier miles are required to reach silver status, will they give it to me? My review date is 31st July.

The problem is, though, the cost for upgrading the entire fare from saver to flex fare is about 20,000 PKR (about US$203). Is it worth the upgrade? Should I get it done? Thanks in advance.
