I got my eUpgrade credits posted today. 35k status.
Interestingly, the new credit amount was not reflected on my dashboard. But they were available on the eUpgrade web page.

That's normal, the tile on the app/website is usually out of date.

Both my wife and I got them up to 2026. She also has 10 credits valid until 2099. Not sure where these came from.

Did my select benefits 24 hours ago: 50 upgrade credits not posted but my 50K nominee posted right away, don't need them ATM so will wait and see what happens.

One thing I noticed... I'm given the option to select benefits as 35k and it's either 10 eUpgrade credits or 35% bonus points. Isn't the 10 additional credits offered during the early recognition period? If I chose this now, I wonder if they will offer me 15 additional credits again later?

EDIT: seems like others have reported the same issue earlier in this thread. NVM.

Update: So I selected 10 credits but they are not added to my eUpgrade account. And I still get the message "Thank you for your patience while we update 2024 Select Benefits..." so I think the prior option form was probably a bug.

75K Benefits Received - Others?

I went from SE to 75 this year and when I went to select my benefits, I was given the opportunity to choose 75K benefits. I thought I would be able to pick my 25K, 35K, and 50K benefits as well... since I achieved those last year. Is this not the case?

35K Benefits After Upgrading to 50K

My wife qualified for 35K for 2024, I am a SE and I am contemplating giving her my 50K benefit.

If I give her the 50K, will the 50K benefits will just override whatever she has from the 35K (especially eupgrade credits, MLL vouchers, etc.)? Or will it be the combination of 35K + 50K benefits especially about eupgrades, MLL passes (of course, I do not mean doubled the 3x 32kg/70lbs luggage allowance for flights)?

If it is the first scenario, would it not make sense to use some of the eupgrade credits and MLL vouchers first before assigning her the 50K benefits so she can maximize the benefits for both?

Thank you for your help.

No, you get to pick those when youre ascending the ladder, so to speak, of early recognition. But if you start the year as 75k, you pick those benefits only.

In January 2023, couldnt you only pick SE benefits? Not 25k, 35k, etc? Its the same thing now.

I'm SE through 2030, and guaranteed 50K beyond that. If I can book the flight, I should be able to request an upgrade.
You must realize that you are the in the top 0.1% of AC status members, for the rest of us in the 99.9% class, it is a generous program improvement. Anyways, it is mood, as AC is fixing the glitch.

This reminded me of the same system enhancements to last year SQD calculator, which had an especially rough 1st 2 months, and not fully fixed until late into September.

No e-mail here, but the web site allows to choose our benefit already,

Not for everyone.
My wife and I still can't select.
Still get the "Thank you for your patience...." message.
