Today was the day for the announcement of the 4th Tier or something similar according to this thread:

Could it be what you've described instead?

I've not had this offer, although I'm not overly surprised since I've only just scraped requalification for next year (52K miles this year)
Sounds like there's a qualifying number of miles for this - from 2 of the posts above I'd guess it's 100k.
Nice to get something over and above for a change for those who have shown real loyalty!

84,000 tier miles this year, all in C, so was expecting nothing.
And stragely enough, thats exactly what I got.
Not complaining though, been upgraded from C to F on every flight where there has been F, and my wife got upgraded Y to C this trip, on a reward ticket. She got lounge access too whilst in Y, as did my daughter and her boyfriend, also travelling on a Y reward trip.
Sorry, but EK still get my vote for getting it right !!

Wow! Can you tell me the flight patterns on those sectors?
a) Flight route?
b) Load in C / Load on F?
c) 'Location' of upgrade (e.g. check-in, lounge, gate) by departing location (i.e. DXB or outstation)
Thanks in advance for that insight!

Got the same thing! Tier miles currently at 40K. Was scheduled to make a trip in Nov anyway to requalify, so this is a nice bonus 5K miles.
