I made early 100k for the first time last fall. When I did - I got the new 100k bag tags, and it included some SPG lounge coupons to use.
I just got the 2019 mail with tags and AC lounge certificates - but it didn't include any SPG lounge coupons.
I'm wondering if they were just missing by mistake or if they are not distributing them for 2019.
thanks

Marriwood sounds so much better though, and is also more in keeping with the fact that Marriott bought Starwood. I'm shocked that the totally awkward "Starriott" seems to have stuck.
Regardless, I think there was some sort of note on the Altitude website about the SPG partnership ending a few months ago, wasn't there? Shame, given I've just achieved Marriwood Platinum status.

Trying to figure out something WRT early recognition, and selecting current privileges.
I was E75K with the 75% bonus AE points, then got the early 100K with bonus miles selected. For the next year I didn’t select the bonus miles, but have a few flights to start 2019 before the end of February.
Can’t figure out if I will still get my bonus AE miles on these trips, as my dashboard only shows the new selections, and a week ago it referenced dates of Jan1 2019 to Dec31 2019 for privileges (typo?).
I’m assuming I would still be getting the bonus?

I'm starting to lean towards the 12 month Gogo plan.
I don't need eUps. I don't really have anyone who could seriously benefit from E50K. I certainly don't need a lower requalification level (I have over 100k AQM booked or flown for 2019 already).
However, my travel on AC tends to be grouped into one month (EYW), or on aircraft that aren't currently equipped with wifi. I suppose in a few months that will change, but it's hard for me to make that selection when something like 6 of my last 6 flights have not had wifi.

The select your privileges button is right in big red on the home page.

Can someone help me understand eUps? It’s been a while for me. I found two charts and if I am reading them correctly, they lowered the number of eUp credits but added a domestic/TB add-on? I am E35 and it looks like I will have to pay to use eups anytime I want to? I am always booked into flex.
So if that hat is the case, right now there is a promotion and it would be best for me to use them ASAP when there is not addon?

Yes, it's been a perpetually extended promotion since 2015 or so...
2015 Fall eUpgrade Offer
New eUpgrade Requirements! Co-pay for lower flex fares
But the current promo:
https://www.aircanada.com/ca/en/aco/...ade-offer.html
Says eUpgrade requests to be made up to January 10, 2019 for transborder/domestic travel...
So get on it STAT!
