Re-qualified on Friday with my trip to Japan.
108,146 AQM
34 AQS
21,271.55 AQD

Still one more trip to Europe, and perhaps a few domestic. But wont hit my numbers from last year. With Branded Fares, this might be my last SE qualification.

Would this be the first time that you eclipse 200K qualifying miles from an AC perspective, within the same calendar year?

I crossed over a couple weeks ago. I doubt I would pass E75 next year (we will see).

Already over on AQM, but will surpass AQD this Thursday...

This will be the latest I have ever qualified in ~15 straight years as SE. I usually qualify between March and June.

Will qualify for SE100K next month after my last set of planned flights this year. Haven't been SE100K for several years now. Really miss the concierge service!

Just crossed 200K AQM yesterday with AC. I figure I'll end the year with approx. 245K AQM on AC and another 45K miles flown on CX.

If it happens, yes.

I had credited ~10k to UA earlier this year when I thought I'd go for UA Gold, but due to some other issues, I want those miles credited to Aeroplan now

So if I can make that happen, 200k is feasible. If I can't, it's very unlikely.

Unless there's another mistake fare

will re-qualify November 8th.
Last year it was early October. After November 8th not much travel except HNL turn, most likely be around 113,000 AQM when it's all said and done...no probe hitting the 20K AQD

The 200k threshold gift isn't all that impressive, and probably no more $500 Amex gift card by the time you get there. No big deal if you don't hit it.

I requalified back in June. Earliest ever.

Since then, I've been burning down Aeroplan points, and figure I have avoided in spending $35-40,000 additional on Air Canada. There is ZERO incentive for a spend after hitting, particularly given the looming expiration/devaluation/bankruptcy fo Aeroplan.

Did I say ZERO incentive. Nada. None.

I believe we're also discussing ZERO in the other thread.

I think it needs emphasis.

I think that depends.

If I flew enough to earn AC SE and AA EXP, then yes, I'd agree. Earn one, then earn the other.

But if the option was AC SE and AA Platinum, or just continue flying AC, I think the benefits of flying where I'm top status would outweigh what I'd get out of mid-status on another airline.
