I really should have made a big push to take better advantage of the current promotion, as a couple TATLs would have likely pushed me to EXP at least by year's end. But I had two qualms: one, that if I got to EXP, I could never go back and it would be challenging to maintain, and two, I would have felt a little guilty flying to Europe without DH, who has limited vacation time. (I would not likely do a true MR, since there are so many places I want to visit that I would want to stay a few days wherever I went). I did do a transcon to visit some friends but overall will net probably 10K bonus EQMs at most. As it is, I should remain PLT without any problems so I'll take that for now.
