I was absent minded and joined yesterday. I wonder if they are going to retroactively give me the double miles on the segments I flew since September 1st.

SwissHON, the promo is only good for status miles. No HON miles and no award miles which, I guess, are of much higher interest in your case than status miles.

I can not see any double status miles for flights I took within the last two weeks. I registered weeks ago, just out of curiosity. Maybe M&M does not double them because I a) do not need to requalify this year (SEN until 02/12) and b) have already more then the 130k needed anyway?

It was a rather confused and confusing promotion in any case.Has anyone successfully registered and received double award miles?

Just got a friendly reminder that the current double status miles promo is still valid until end of Oct. and that I can also buy a SEN extension for €2,000 (for 1 year). Probably some of you got the same useless email.

I should have banked my miles somewhere else then, and just bought up to SEN!
(Actually, I can't fly any European sectors until November, so let's hope they reinstate it...if I decide to requalify!)

I wish someone kind like you had reminded me. I have an astonishing number of status miles credited, but need not one of them: It's my "holiday" year (I requalified last year). A reminder to read T&C more carefully ...

This has apparently been extended to the end of the year, at least for me. Brussels Airlines is now also on the list. Just in by e-mail:

So why not take advantage of this last chance to increase your balance by earning plenty of status miles?
