Is the 5k PQM for club membership gone?
My club membership expires the end of March. The past couple of years I've enjoyed (and needed) the 5K PQM's for signing up. Is this promotion gone for good? Just wanted to confirm before plopping down the $400 renewal fee.

Yes, it has been gone for almost a year now. Get the Citi Executive AA card for 50k miles and Admiral Clubs access.

If you spend $40k before your account posts in December, you'll also earn 10k EQM toward status.

Just to clarify: the Citi Executive card doesn't provide Admirals Club access; it provides an annual full Admirals Club membership, an important distinction. That means one is entitled to two (sometimes more for members of the same household) guests, access even if not flying (if it's for "business reasons", but with fax, computer and the like, there are lots of possibilities) and reciprocal access privileges with other airlines (e.g. Qantas Clubs in Australia when flying Qantas the same day, in any class of service, etc.)
If you spend $40k before your account posts in December, you'll also earn 10k EQM toward status.
