I think those cover the marginal gains of PPro over Plat, might be missing one.

Do those benefits equal $1500 of value for 13 months of access?
If you have some RDM to burn, maybe you do the combo method, if the upgraded status is worth $500 to you and you burn the rest in miles?
Or, do you see yourself traveling / spending enough this year to hit PPro without doing any sort of buy up in the mean time?
Thank you, jtav559. It's tough and most of my answers are probably no. I've booked most of my travels for this year and just can't see how I would get 123k LP with those travels. Two of my international travels are not on AA so no change there.
