What's your Altitude status for 2014?

Maintaining my S100K status with 136k miles this year.

Should hit SE 100k by first week of December. Though this year it will be segments and not mileage that gets me to that level.

Made 65,000 miles last year and will do almost exactly the same this year so E50K again. Not worth a MR to get to 75,000. About 8 r/t trips to SAN and saw only 4 different SD's, one of them at least 4 times. Almost always u/g either at OLCI or eups and sitting up front makes the cross-country trip more bearable.

After losing status for the first time in 5 years for 2013, I've booked up flights through end-year to hit Elite 50K for 2014.

With my Singapore-issued Amex Platinum Charge Card, I've also gotten complimentary CX Marco Polo Gold for 2014 too though, so I'm unsure what to do. Stick with Aeroplan and *Gold or make the switch to OneWorld.

I qualified for SE 3 months ago. Crossed over 2 million in August and should easily hit 300000 by year end. I think I should be able to carry surplus miles forward.

Oh, and 136 segments to date. I fly mostly domestic with a few international thrown in this yr. I don't fly with WestJet mostly because the scheduling doesn't work for me. Also have to say that there is a big improvement with AC on time departures. Makes things more tolerable. Now, if they would only buy out some of the most senior FA who clearly hate their job and show it spades to the passengers!

Crossed 100K at the end of June. 95th segment in early August. Due to end the year with over 160K AQM and 130+ segments.

Should also be making Alaska MVP Gold as well.

Most likely E75K, worst case E50K. Not doing a MR to SE as I do domestic travel only.

On track to be 100K for first time after 6+ years of elite/50k. Planning for trips next year where 100K will really help.

Also chose the lower re-qualify; bit of a waste.

How about just buy out those who hate their jobs and show it in spades to the passengers.

Yup. Already requalified for ExecPlat with AA, should be 1K again in early December with UA.

At least put the additional 200K into MP (after qualifying for various elite tiers the actual RDMs would come to about 350K) where awards are cheaper because there are no fuel surcharges levied, or scam charges as others put it. But I suppose going after a BMW or another suit from Harry Rosen might be the goal, along with eUpgrade credits.
