Hi all,

Just wanted a clarification from the experts:

So, I'm currently a Silver, just requalified by >25K preferred miles

Question: Does this mean that I will have to wait until next Feb/March to get the SWUs?

But what if I go onto to achieve Gold this November? Does this mean that I should expect a Gold package sooner than next Feb/March or do I still have to wait until Feb/March to get the SWUs?

Thanks all!

In my experience, when renewing your status, you wait for the annual mailings of packages. When gaining the next level, you get the package a few weeks after attainment.

I believe that is true IF you make the next level by a cutoff date for the year. I believe I read in another thread that cutoff date is now Oct 31st. Then you will get a gold package and another one Feb 03.

If you make Gold after Oct 31 you will just get the one package in Feb 03. Again, I did not hear this firsthand but read it on these boards.
