Ferrying a VIP orbiting around the Kerbin with a succeeded mission?

[Mperonen]

I have a problem with a mission where I have to ferry a VIP orbiting around the Kerbin. I have done so, but I fail to get the mission ticked ad succeeded...am I missing something?

Have you both landed yet, safe and sound or are you still in orbit?

I did manage to land safely once. But nothing happened.

Did your orbit have both apoapsis and periapsis above 70000 m altitude? (That is needed to count as "orbit", if the periapsis remained under 70k, even if your ship was in space, it is suborbital...).

Often the VIPs demand to get suborbital flight on Kerbin as well as orbit around Kerbin (and I guess the smart guys at mission control extort the VIP for a few extra funds for that suborbital "extra")... but the nice thing for you is that you can check the mission, and see if the "suborbital flight" already has a green check, but the "orbit" does not.

Other than that, these type of contracts are really easy. Take off, orbit, land safely, get paid.

Ah yes it was the altitude, thanks! Silly me.
