My membership will turn to silver starting in November 2025 until October 2026.
I have an upcoming flight on QR that will earn me a decent amount of status points (170) in November/December 2025 so I think I should do the retrocredit in January 2026 so that it counts (hopefully) as status points earned in 2026 and towards my 2027 membership.
