Missing by one segment due to re-route
Hi All,
Sorry if this is covered in history - don't come here often and didn't see much in the search.
I had a flight booked that was a connector which would have got me to my qualification for 50K in 2018, but the first flight was cancelled. Various rebooking and a day later I'm on a direct which will leave me 1 segment short.
Anyone know if an appeal here would help? I don't have time to get a quick flight in and honestly not sure the 35k-50k is worth it just for the upgrade in my case.
Thanks,
Pete

I'd send a nice email to the altitude folks explaining your situation. They're human after all and can be quite understanding.
When I was flying short haul segments for my last job, all I wanted was 35k for the early boarding, and everything else was bonus window dressing. I know it sucks if you can't get over the hump, but at least you got that sweet sweet priority boarding.

Happened to me last year. I was given the following email address. They made me whole.

Good to hear and happy flying. And thanks for coming back to update the thread; not everyone does but makes a world of difference to know how things like this end up.
