This is the bane of the SFO based AA flyer’s existence (see relevant post here AA really has given up on SFO-based flyers)

while there have been years I’ve spent between $50k and $75k and been rewarded with CK…there are just as many years I’ve spent >$100k and was given a CK challenge to spend $Xk (usually 10-20 in 2 months) more to keep CK.there were years that I even routed. SFO-LAX-LHR (on AA)-Europe instead of SFO-LHR-Europe on BA to increase my AA metal, and lost CK.

This year, I hit the 200k LPs in June, but hit 30 segments last week
