Ask your cousin to put your name on the letterbox, at least temporarily.

Are they still making the statuses valid from 12 months of the request date (not calendar year)?

It seems AB is back to requiring a TATL R/T on AB metal for status match. Just received this today for two different accounts:
"Customers with residence in the US must prove a booking confirmation incl. booking number of an airberlin long haul flight between US and Europe (return ticket).
This flight must be operated by airberlin and take place in 2016."
