That is an amazing flight record. You've just about covered the major places on the planet with that map.

Just got back from a little daytrip MUC-WAW-TLL-WAW-MUC. This closes out my flying year 2018.
According to M&M I do currently have collected 95358 status miles. One segment@1563 miles is still missing (pending since November), I have two segments 938 miles ea. where the award miles were credited incorrectly (so if I ask them to change that they will likely cancel out the flights before fixing them - same reason why the 1563 are still missing). Today's flight will bump me up to 101610 status miles (plus the missing 1563 status miles). 90 flights overall (LH 70, SK 6, LO 4, EW 4, AI 2, BA 1, 9W 1, 6E 1, TP 1) resulting in the following map:
Both intercontinental trips were in PE (E/E; N/E) and 90% of the intra-european flights were in Y.
The corresponding 2017-18 Miles and More map looks like this:
I do wonder how long it'll take until M&M acknowledges that I did in fact requalify in 2018.
Happy new year to everyone!

Got HON for two more years! Still waiting for the last credit by LX (flight on 28th) to have a final number for 2018. I still dont understand why it takes LX 3 to 4 days to credit miles into M&M - I wonder if they mail tapes to the M&M instead of online transfer :-)

Well I've made it to the gate with 29 flights credited, and 3 which haven't credited. There's just a flying chance that one of them might get credited by midnight. Otherwise, I am beginning to wonder how it's going to work with the IT recognizing - or not recognizing - qualifying flights from what is soon going to be last year. Hope I don't have to fight for it (like I am going to have to with Hilton for my Gold membership, which appears not to have been recognized in their crappy system).

The big question is, what happens now with flights in late 2018 that haven't been credited yet. Will they reset our qualification levels, or is the IT not going to recognize it, leading to having to fight for it? In the long run, probably not such an issue, as I will easily complete 30 flights again with my movements. But I'd rather it didn't have to come to that.

I'm rather interested in knowing when shall I get my physical card from M&M (and come to think of it, from TK... they sent the first one alright, but neither the prolonged one, nor the requested "replacement" one arrived.)

My 23:45hr LX departure on New Year's Eve from DAR to ZRH in F pushed me into Senator status. The flight was credited to my account on the 3rd, but as the flight departed on the 31st it was properly accrued to my 2018 status miles.
Happy Near Year everyone!
