On what airline?
2 Asia trips won't even meet the minimum number of flights, let alone qualify you for any status.
4 trips on Star Alliance from the US to Asia might get you the lowest status, which does essentially nothing for you. You probably would need another 8 trips to make it to Gold which is where it actually means something.
- kenneth 8y agoYour math is way off. Did you check the distance on a map? SFO-HKG 2x will earn you 27k miles [1]. Most programs have their status levels at 25k miles for lowest and 100k for highest. So, ignoring spend, 2 round-trips to HKG will earn you Silver status on United. 4 trips in business class (double miles) will earn you 110k miles, enough for 1K status.
