That's the offer that I mentioned in
post #863. I seem to recall two people mentioning, in some thread on FlyerTalk, that the offered points were slow to post. (I completed my travel a week ago, so I'm not yet in the complaining mode.)
But the reason I bring up the whole dreary subject is that I got the offer in October, with the same expiration date. You get three fewer months to complete the travel. (I wish I had gotten three, or nine, fewer months to complete the MAX offers.)
