How loud would you like your 'No' to be?

It does sometimes happen at the end of the year when someone is a few miles short of a tier but even that is rare since they obviously prefer to charge people for that gap.

Getting it during the year isn't going to happen, fly the miles, get the status and enjoy it after you qualify.
