No, it is.
Just used it yesterday morning, they had the sign out and everything. At one point last year it was not, but it certainly is now.

If I had more business travel this year, I'd do the Challenge and get Platinum this year, but I might save that for the future. Wish I had booked one of those $400+ fares!
If you're based out of SFO or LAX, this is still a no brainer. Getting too/from PDX makes it a little less interesting, but still a pretty great ticket if you primarily fly AA.
From PDX its not bad - with the new AA service to LA coming later this year I have noticed PDX-LAX fares on DL/AS coming down, I scored my RT w/ UG to FC on AS for I think 211RT, not the best but certainly doesnt kill the value of the trip.
My totals for the trips, 9,432 base miles 24,150 bonus miles 33,582 total.
