Got my offer today. I'm currently PPro with $13K EQD, 86,831 EQM and 42 EQS. Offer was/is $2645 for EPlat. I don't have any more trips planned this year. My spending is roughly 50% OPM/50% Mine (including my business related travel). I do several trips overseas each year on my dime, and like the idea of SWU and higher status. In my mind, the SWUs are worth $1400 and 100,000 miles. I generally rely on mileage upgrades for my overseas travel, but this past week was 0-fer both out and back for the first time in a long, long time. Part of it was the Chicago weather debacle on the 25th, but coming back I was still a bit too far down the list.
It's tempting because finding the time and the route to do a 14,000 mileage run is unlikely - at least for anything less than $2645 when you consider airfare and opportunity cost. Am I stupid?
