One strategy for someone else who has not yet applied is to wait till late July to apply (just before the July 31 deadline for Charter Membership) and wait till Oct. to spend the $1000 to get an expiry date of Oct. 2013.
BTW, how easy is it to get an extension from FPC?
The extension of normal certs aren't too bad if you have a trip reserved. I've done it a few times and they extend them to the last day of my reserved trip.

But with these being promotional certs I don't know if they'll be able/willing to extend them as much.
