Horrible advice IMO. Would you BET your staus for the next year on:

1. The advice of an employee who may or may not know what they are talking about,

2. and is a full 3 weeks after the cut-off date (Dec 31), thus eliminating any recourse (actually flying the miles) if the employee is wrong?

Unless I, and this is just me, KNEW for sure this January 24th deal was a real deal, I would not take that bet. But that's me. Just sayin'. Good luck.
