I can't answer that as it's very subjective. It depends on how much you value your miles and Platinum status.

And do you know how long the plat challenge status holds?</font>
I recently (after 6/16) completed the challenge and got confirmation during sign up that it would be good until 2/04. I won't know for sure until 2/03.
