Reach status faster
Fly on American or other eligible airlines* and earn the required Elite Qualifying Miles (EQMs) and Elite Qualifying Dollars (EQDs) between the date you register and September 22, 2017, and you’ll receive status through January 31, 2019.
Elite status level EQMs EQDs
Gold 7,000 $1,000
Platinum 12,500 $2,000
Platinum Pro 20,000 $3,000
Executive Platinum 35,000 $4,000
I got something similar. Only thing is is I'm at 78,000 EQM and $10,500 EQD, so rather useless to me at this point now. Need to find some cheap domestic MRs this month. My trip to LHR next month should net me another $1200 EQD and 11,000 EQM.
My last trip LA-SYD via HK on CX in E gave me 35,000 EQM and $4750 EQD.
