I think I'll just hit 50K for 2023, but I'll be cutting it fine. Maybe too fine? I would appreciate if anyone can spot a logical gap in my plan.

Currently have 46,857 SQM and $9.9k SQD for the year.

I have an upcoming flight in mid-December YEG-YYC-PHX in paid business. According to the cowtool I should expect 2,211 SQM from that itinerary. 250x1.5 for YEG-YYC (which is single class economy but I bought a business fare so I think the COS bonus still applies) and 1224x1.5 for YYC-PHX.

That brings me to 49,068 SQM and I've just put $10,000 through my 'core' Aeroplan credit card, which should get me a further 1,000 SQM on the statement date, just pushing me over to 50k.

Anything stupid I'm overlooking? I'd rather not have to do a mileage run if I can avoid it, but I also don't want to fall short of 50k by 5-10 SQM.
