I see this on HIA website (https://hawaiianair.custhelp.com/app...e-certificates)

"Can I earn additional certificates?

"Yes, upon flying 75,000 elite qualifying miles in a calendar year, you will receive 6 additional upgrade certificates. For every additional 10,000 elite qualifying miles flown after 75,000, you will earn 1 additional upgrade certificate."

Still, I find the info confusing. I've signed in to HIA and have "Pualani Platinum" status.

Thanks!
I did the status match to Pualani Platinum, called to request the two upgrade certificates. It took a few days for them to arrive. After I received them, I called again to be put on the first class wait list.
