So the OP's offer seemed quite pricier 1.7+
Interest, good point. I am seeing the award miles price in the same range (20-25%).
I'll be slightly impressed if they're using the future flights calculation to figure whether someone is close to a status threshold — and then adjusting the accelerator offer accordingly — but theoretically that is possible.
