PLT is 50K miles or points or 60 segments. You hit 2 of 3. You only needed 1.
You did it.

No, you don't get extra stickers or eVIPs for double-platinum nor even triple-platinum. :-)

You probably got twisted around with the 60 segments (ie thinking 60K) but alas it is not so.
Did not mean to smack too hard - it is early on a Friday morning!
Besides even if your numbers did not add up and they gave you PLT why would worry about it?
Peace!

why do they send out an unnecessary (according to the "again" you already have status until next year) package if they don't know if you qualify for EXP? If I were them I would only send something to members who achieve a new higher status or after the qualification year is pretty much over...
