Thanks for this
Same on Android.
Card delivery still delayed like this? What a joke.
Yup. Going to be at least 5 weeks by the time it gets here. If it arrives at all. The 60 welcome XP have also not posted to my account, unfortunately, despite the commitment on the website that they'll post in 5-7 days. If they don't show up in the next few days, it's going to delay my upgrade from no status to Silver and start costing me significant numbers of status bonus miles on some upcoming trips. I called Brim to try to see if something could be done about the XP. The person I talked to had no idea (initially telling me it would be 4-6 weeks, which is the stated timeline for
miles, not XP), and after putting me on hold to investigate. After doing so, she punted me to Flying Blue support, but then the call dropped.

This is interesting and seems like not how it's supposed to work, so I wonder how long before FB fixes this glitch. But assuming it's still in place, how does it work on tickets purchased through other channels entirely where earning is based on mileage rather than spend, e.g. a ticket purchased from DL?
