Also, I read somewhere (maybe here) that doing an AA Challenge will get you temporary status for 90 days, is this true?
If you do the Platinum Challenge, and if you already have high status with another program, and if you ask very nicely and get a cooperative agent, they'll move you up to AA Gold during the challenge.
