2020 Altitude Package Arrived
Inside this is a letter from Mark Nasr.
Aside from plastic card, 4 baggage tags and 4 wire tag holders, 1 duty free coupon and 4 lounge passes.
I was going to post a photo of my SE 100K MM card except it's pretty scratched and I don't feel like photo editing. Bag tags are less scratched.

That was quick. I take it you had already selected all of your various select privileges?

I wasn't sure what triggered the packages to be sent. Last year it was around the time I bothered to select my privileges so figured that had some bearing. But apparently not.

SE would logically get theirs first, because there's no higher status. An E75K sitting at 98k AQM and 20k AQD might have to wait, since a missing mileage request could bump them to SE.

I wonder if SE MM is higher status for mailing.
On the back side of the letter, in very tiny print, is a series of 9 numbers/3 numbers.
Directly beneath are the letters ESE1MM

If anything, I'd expect a renewing SE would be one of the lower priorities, because they don't need the package as much as a new SE. But this assumes they have priorities. At this point, the only people they know are at their final status are the SEs, and I suspect all those packages could have been sent for processing.
It could be as simple as being done alphabetically by name, or numerically by Aeroplan number, or some random order.

Also there's the fact that I don't have mine yet.

In terms of the various plastic contents, aside from the very scratched Altitude card and somewhat scratched bag tags (yes, repeated for emphasis), the glue seems to leave a lot more residue when removing from all of the cards.
Also, last year's SE bag tags were two-tone black with a very minimal difference of color (starts above the words Super Elite). The new one is slightly lighter on the same lower portion. I've never understood why not all solid black versus the break for this specific card.
Yes, many others may feel this is all cosmetic fluff stuff. Perhaps. Details matter to some of us.
