Hi,

I have a question with regards to this challenge. I was recently offered to do this challenge between Dec 06 and Feb 07. I was thinking if it is worth it to spend around 600 USD to do this? The thing is that I will be getting enough segments next year to get to PLT. Now, they offered me this challenge to get a head start. I was told that since my challenge starts in Dec 06, I do not need any qualifying AA flights (is this also true).

My upcoming flights are with
QF (0.5 qp, domestic which I can maybe try and push it up to 1qp earning and 1.5 qp earning later by paying a bit more) and
BA (0.25 qp, domestic+EU). I need t0 get 5k within this 3 months. I am wondering if this challenge it worth it?

Thanks for the advise.
