I am only at P25K and was be able to register and got my 500 Wings
If I can indeed find some routes that work for me, I will try to get to SE and do wonder if I really do get 4 x Level Up Badge:

Up, up and away! Earn 250 Wings each time you climb to a higher Altitude tier. Super Elite 100K members automatically receive this badge once when they register for already being at the highest level. You must reach a higher Altitude status between September 7 and December 11, 2017, inclusively.

Clearly I would make EYW harder and more expensive if they hired me 
Time to plug the new data into the algorithm and decide how I'm going to do this.
I'm considering just flying weekends this time. An extra several days of weekend flying would still be cheaper than taking a week off work.

I do wonder why AC would run it so late on into the year. I mean, it even covers thankgiving - the real one and the US one.
I don't know the logic behind not allowing tangerines to join. Maybe this is a status enhancement

I'm looking forward to watching FTer's dominate the top 10 again this year!
I will live vicariously through your 8 flights a day adventures.
Cow - be sure to blog about it again.
I can't seem to convince my wife that bringing our 2 year old to take part in EYW is a good idea.

Right, but you have status. If you don't have status, you need to earn E35K, because there's no early recognition for P25K.
This isn't new.

Air Canada has final discretion on any aspect of this PROMOTION and has the right to disqualify any participant for any reason.

Interestingly, there are some airports (BOS, SLC, CDG, BGI) that show up under the "Destination" badge section, but are black and gold of the Super Destination Badges. Yet, they don't show up under the "Super Destination" tab. AC IT fail or am I missing something obvious? I can't rule either out

Is anybody having problems registering? I've tried several times today without success. The 'Authenticating' message just keeps on spinning. Just wondering.

I just noticed one of the route for Wing Tips USA badge YOW-LGA no longer exists.

I wonder if they meant for it to be YOW-EWR?
