Thank you for pointing that out. I looked the thread over and it seems that based on the example e-mail on the first page I'd have a shot to do the platinum challenge.

One thing I didn't see, perhaps I overlooked it somewhere, is the upfront cost to do the Gold Challenge? I see where the example e-mail mentions $240 for the Platinum...is the fee the same for the Gold?

How many points needed for Gold?

I just pulled up my flights for August, September and November. I don't see where points are listed on the AA bookings? I see the miles though. You mentioned points not miles so I am trying to find where the points are listed?

I'd be flying First/Biz on all routes

August 14th = IAH to DFW & DFW to PHL
August 23rd = PHL to RDU & RDU to IAH

Sept 18th = IAH to DFW & DFW to LAS
Sept 23rd = LAS to DFW & DFW to IAH

Nov 13th = IAH to DFW & DFW to LIM
Nov 19th = LIM to DFW & DFW to IAH

Based on my reading in the Challenge thread and the wiki I'd get 1.5 points for flying First/Biz...so I should achieve the necessary criteria for Platinum?
