The 60/90k threshold gifts have not been given to SEs as long as I've been SE.

But you should still get your eUps, albeit it might not be instantaneous.

Quick question regarding 150k and 200k threshold gifts: Do I receive the 25k rollover AQMs on top of the 15k I get at 150k making it 40k AQM in total? Or is it one or the other?

15K Rollover AQM gift
I'm currently sitting at 142K AQM. That means I'm 8K short of a 15K rollover AQM gift. In other words, 8K of AQM this year, will count for 15K of AQM next year.
Sounds like a mileage run is in order
However, before I do that I want to confirm the availability of the gift. In the past there have been threshold gifts that were listed on the site - but when you actually pass the threshold, many of the gifts were marked as "sold out" and so unavailable, especially late in the year. Now, most of those gifts were a collection of physical things (headphones, etc) - and I can't see any legitimate reason why AC would consider rollover AQM as something they could "run out" of - so I think I should be ok.
Even so, the only point of a mileage run now is to get that threshold gift, so I do want to be sure it's achievable. Does anyone have experience here? Logic would state that the rollover AQM gifts would always be available once you pass the threshold, but logic doesn't always apply with AC.

I too may be very close to the 150k threshold. I may have to upclass some flights, or route coming home from Texas via Denver, or even YVR. Even if it means my own money.
