As you know, AA introduced 'Boost' last year which allowed for buy-up to next elite level given certain circumstances and $$ payment. Have some changes in business travel previously booked that will bring me in 3700 short of 100,000 - :/ If I can find a good mileage run may have to do that, although given how close we are to the end of the year would prefer just to fork over the $$. I've not seen anything published to date that would suggest it's either going away - or continuing - into next year. Any insight appreciated. Thx!
