Correct. So you get a maximum of per calendar year after you reached 1K. There are a few exceptions:

- The quarter you qualify for 1K, if you flown > 10K miles, you will get 2 CR-1s
- From time to time, there are promotions for extra CR-1s.

By the way, CR-1s supported upgrades are also confirmable anytime, just like SWUs, assuming inventory for the upgrade is available. The 500-milers are subjected to a particular elite level upgrade window.
