Really?

I'm new to FT and now that I've lurked for about 2 weeks my wife and I are signing up for the AA Platinum challenge.

I'm flying from TPA to San Fran via (TPA-MIA-ORD-LAX-SFO-LAX-ORD-MIA-TPA] in First Class for about 1200 bucks and I'll be Platinum when I'm done, AND get the bonus miles on the flight because I become platinum WHILE FLYING it..

AA isn't soo bad..

That describes the AA Platinum Challenge - a highly sub-par experience IMO.



Now that's not so good.
