But given that they intentionally took it away, I don't see it coming back.

If only AC would give us 35Ks the choice to pick between upgrade credits or *G status. I know that will never happen but it would be great. Then we can cheapen lounges instead of premium cabins
Identical on all points Though I'd like *G to get some benefits on other carriers beyond lounges.

I am very much the oddball here
Bundle 1: 50% Altitude Bonus & Lower Requalification Level
Bundle 2: 10 eUpgrade Credits & aircanada.com Travel Options
Bundle 3: N/A as I never buy a Flight Pass

With my Travel options entitlement to a complimentary Air Canada Caf option on flights within North America operated by Air Canada, Air Canada Express and Air Canada Rouge over 2 hours I will be be eligible for one meal item and one snack item, up to CAD$9.95 in value which will make me the envy of the folks in steerage. I'm looking forward to sharing my pringles with someone really, really cool from FT.

My first E75K play this year. I don't expect that to be a regular amount of travel.

I picked eUps and gift E35K to Mr. FQ. He doesn't fly much but he's been through some health issues and watching him queue just for bag drop when I was not flying with him - it's my chance to give him a couple trips with status of his own and maybe other trips if any new travel comes along for him. I have so many AE miles I can't use in part because of time and part because of not being able to call to book something like the miniRTW.

Anyway, the other benefits I picked were Bundle 2, eUps and lounge passes, and in Bundle 3, AQM for FP activity.

I never got asked. The only email I got was telling me I was overdue to select P25k... I don't think I even got a note that that was ready.

It's not clear from your post, but have you tried logging in to see if the option is there?

Note: There is a separate thread it might be better to post this in.

I never got an email when I saw my link to choose my items on my altitude account... So I chose them.

Then several days later I received an email inviting me to choose my items.

For me:

Status Level - SE
Bundle 1 - 100% Altitude Bonus and 50 Eupgrade credits
Bundle 2 - 20 Eupgrade Credits and 6 ML Guest passes
Bundle 3 - 12 Eupgrade credits for eligible flight pass activities

(Should we just call this the "Standard SE Bundle"?)

For Mrs. Smith, essentially the E50 version of the same thing:

Status Level - E50K
Bundle 1 - 50% Altitude Bonus and 30 (?) Eupgrade credits
Bundle 2 - 10 Eupgrade Credits (?) and 4 ML Guest passes
Bundle 3 - 12 Eupgrade credits for eligible flight pass activities (not that she ever buys FPs, so it's somewhat moot)

Not to nitpick, but it's not 12 credits for FP activities for an E50K

Precisely the same, except for the last item for my wife, which is equally moot.

I had to check for it, especially since we don't care... And yes, it is 30 and 10 credits.

Not sure why we keep picking the credits. We always end the year with half of them left... (Just to be safe I guess. We might buy more latitude and less P fares?)

As a SE, I chose your options for bundle 1/2 - and 2500 AQM for bundle 3.

For my wife, an E75K for this year, the same version of the above:

Bundle 1 - 75% Altitude bonus and 40 eupgrade certs.
Bundle 2 - 15 eupgrade certs and 5 MLL guess passes.
Bundle 3 - 1500 AQM for bundle 2.
