So thank you dear Flyertalkers for posting these specials, this is where I find out about the promotions. I had no trouble registering for this one, and since I dont receive the emails, I doubt I was targeted !

Thanks to you, f4freeJunior
Funny you say that. Same here. They should have my email but never heard a word, other than the monthly account statement...

Which country are you based in?

For me, on the Miles & More homepage (NL) it was showing up on the promo banner.

Might be available to only certain countries, perhaps?

Ridiculous...first limiting lounge access on arrival because lounges are too crowded and then awarding double status miles to ensure that in the next two years lounges will be crowded...

That's the main point IMO - expect to see huge numbers of new SEN from now till Feb/2011 Probably few of them will renew, but it's still FTL until Feb/2013

Well I got this - I have requalified for FTL, but there is a remote chance that with this promo I might make SEN

It seemed to work for me to sign up and I haven't received a mail. I'm based in Sweden.

The Promo is for STATUS MILES, not HON MILES, therefore you may notch up lots of Status miles, but will still miss your HON, unless you can collect 150,000 regular HON Miles in the next four months.

I re-qualified for HON back in June 2009 and I still got that e-mail. Very strange..

Same here. I didn't receive the e-mail, but I could register. No confirmation e-mail, however. I'm based in Norway.

Worked for me based out of the US. Not all that interesting as I don't fly many intra-European segments.

Hi CROSSING, which country do you have in the profile? None of the promos work for me....

Im a recently downgraded to Frequent traveler guy registered in the middle east (much less miles required on lots of destinations)

Plain old Germany. Usually you get more promotions if you are based either in Germany (best), Switzerland (was good in the past) or Austria (good). I was based the balkan region for some time (customer project) and hardly got any targeted promotions.

Good luck! We need more SENs to make SEN lounges even more crowded.

My question was addressed to kiez whose profile is SEN+ . If already requalified as SEN I wondered about the reason for (cry). Perhaps the requalification was through MR?
