I recently came into learning about Miles around August and started flying more with AA for work/pleasure. I'm now 24k elite miles from Exec Platinum status and trying to find ways to reach this before end of the year. My points/segments are far from reaching so elite miles the closest. Does anyone have tips how I could do this? I was planning on purchasing the extra elite miles offered but I believe that's only when you're 10k shy of next status, correct? I'm based in Miami currently, and with one upcoming round trip should be about 20k short of Exec Plat. Any help, appreciated!
