Buying miles and PQPs are separate decisions. But buying PQPs is best to deffer until you have a better I idea of what you will get out of flying.

Short Update: I made it to 1k on Monday.

Another question: it happens quite often that I fly to, e.g., Europe, and my family is flying a couple of days later. However, we take the same flight back, but the booking is on two different tickets, but I booked for them and I can see their flights in my account.
Is there a way to book the complementary economy plus for them?

Yes, call 1K and they can assign E+ seats on separate PNRs.

It appears OP meant 1k PQPs, not 1K MP status.......

That is not correct. I meant 1K status. I traveled since Jan:
- 4x to Europe (business)
- 2x JFK
- 1x MIA
- 1x HNL (business)

Home airport is SFO

it is indeed very easy right now to earn 1K flying intercontinental business class. Enjoy! Call and they will assign the seats you need
