Getting to Gold has never been easier.
Last year, you earned 40,723 Preferred-qualifying miles and 11 Preferred-qualifying segments. You needed just 9,277* miles or 49 segments in 2007 to reach Gold status.
Get all of the perks and privileges that come with Gold status now for just $483.75. The fee to upgrade to Gold status for the 2008 program year is determined by how much you flew in 2007 and includes federal excise tax.
This limited-time opportunity is only available through March 31, 2008. To upgrade your Preferred status now, call the Dividend Miles Service Center at 800-856-1621.
I received the above yesterday. Normally getting to Gold is easy for me but last year I flew a number of international flights on non US, non *A carriers.
Thoughts? Is it worth it?
Perhaps. If you continue to fly international
on *A carriers, you will have all kinds of nice perks as a *A Gold.
