I got an interesting and surprising message from the diamond service today. Yesterday night, I have wrote to them asking for about 5k status points for cancelled flights, as per the rules quoted above. I was just hoping to reduce the qualification gap for the eventual negotiation later if I have difficulties re-qualifying, or just to reduce the amount of flights I need to do to re-qualify if they start flying. My qualification year is ending July 31, and together with the claimed points I am at about 80k basic points, so slightly more than 10k points short of re-qualifying.
The email said that they extend my card by 12M right away. And that I will see it in the app when my old card expires. Kudos SK!
