There are hints - in the FAQ, NO mention of the five bonus miles; this, IMO, does not bode well for us, nor for iDine.
E.g. "Q.Will I keep my earned 2007 status in 2008?
A.That really depends on you.
If you're a member earning 1 AAdvantage® mile per dollar spent today, you can earn 3 AAdvantage® miles per dollar spent by simply setting up an online profile and electing to receive emails to your valid, working email address.
If you're currently earning 3 AAdvantage® miles per dollar spent, you can continue earning 3 AAdvantage® miles per dollar spent simply by electing to receive emails to your valid, working email address. If you have already done so, you're set! You can reach even higher and achieve VIP member status in 2008 - which enables you to earn 5 AAdvantage® miles per dollar spent - by having at least 12 qualified dines in 2007.
If you currently have AAdvantage DiningSM Elite Member status earning 5 AAdvantage® miles per dollar spent, you can achieve VIP member status in 2008 simply by electing to receive emails to your valid, working email address AND making sure you have at least 12 qualified dines in 2007. Again, if you have already accomplished these goals, you're set for 2008!"
