Hi everyone!

Has anyone had any luck or experience with asking for a tiny flexibility on status miles?

I need 67 miles for FTL status on LH M&M. To make it more painful, I have a FRA-JNB flight on January 1...
I've already emailed them asking if they could award the status, perhaps by crediting some miles in advance from my Jan 1 flight. I'm just curious if anyone had experience with a similar situation.

Any tips & advice would be much appreciated!
