So it sounds as though some Prem Exec special re-qualifiers get 2,500 status miles and 1K's get 5,000 status miles towards 2002 qualification? Presumably those who actually qualified with miles/segments will not receive these bonus status miles in Jan. 2002? While I haven't followed the discussions regarding the confusing methods of status extension this year, I guess that part is ok. But wouldn't that be enough? Giving additional status (2002) miles seems strange?
