Apologies to those who think this thread should stay firmly on topic, but I think this stuff will interest a fair chunk of those here.

I'm starting to plot my requalification for elite plus. When will my collected miles start counting for my requalification?

Let's say I was flying XXX-IST-YYY, and I was on 79k having reached IST. Presumably, if I now collected 10k miles flying to YYY, 9k of those status miles would be wasted. If so - could I buy 1k status miles for $70 on my layover, thereby reaching Elite Plus and having the 10k miles from my flight to YYY count towards my requalification?
