No email for me, but when I checken my Asiana Club Account today, I saw my status had been extended for two years.
Edited: I did receive a confirmation by email a few days later.

A new qualifying period started. However, according to my own calculation my status should have been extended for another 12 month and the 15k or so miles would have made a good start for the following qualification period. Now I have 2 years to gather 30k miles to keep my status, that is fine with me.

Anybody know if I'll get a "soft landing" to Diamond by reaching the Diamond retention qualification during the period (30K miles)? I won't even come close to D+ this time around as my personal business travel is way down.

Was Diamond extension always 30,000 miles? I always thought it was 40,000 miles to both qualify and re-qualify. Anyway, turns out I wasn't a transpac away from re-qualifying but 500 miles away due to the 30,000 mile requirement. So I am doing a short trip this weekend just to play it safe as my qualification period was already extended by 2 years.

Looks like they did not extend my qualification period again to reach Diamond+. Good thing I did the short trip to re-qualify for Diamond.

my wife's Diamond status was extended a further 12 months. The expiry for her previous Diamond status was the end of October, 2023, and she received an email yesterday informing her of the extension. As an added data point, she did not book any Asiana flights, nor credit any of her *A miles to her OZ account this past year.

I currently have Diamond Plus membership expiring in April 2024. As I have only credited 10'000 points to OZ in the past 2 years, I called up the Australian office (where I am) and they said that I would be downgraded to Diamond in May 2024. I then rang the Japanese Asiana Club office and they said I would be downgraded to Silver in May 2024. Then I rang the China Asiana Club office and they said I would be downgraded to Diamond. Who do I believe?
