Here's something weird... I paid the $80 to get 20k elite through the end of September. My challenge was to fly 5,000 miles or spend $5,000 on the Frontier World Mastercard to get status through the end of the year (if I remember correctly)...

Well, my laptop battery ran out and after I rebooted my computer and restored my browser windows that were open, the challenge had changed to 10,000 miles and $10,000 spend by Dec 31, 2023 to earn 20k status through Dec 31, 2024.
