Based on your guys' expertise, should I fly one of these so I can reach Platinum status or is the cost ($400-500) not worth it to get to plat considering I am gold status. I also signed up for the double miles promotion so if I do book this trip by 5/31 I can get double miles too. Your suggestions would GREATLY be appreciated.
It depends on what you feel it is worth.
How much will you be using PLT before Feb 28 of 2007?
What is your plan for flying for the rest of this year?
Will i tbe worth it to you to get the extra 75 percent mileage bonus?
Remember the bonus starts on your last flight that qualifies.
Don't forget you will get miles for this mileage run.
I am still amazed at the people that sign up for a challenge without knowing in advance how they are going to get enough EQPs
