It is likely that benefit selection emails will start going out within the next two weeks to those who have crossed the requisite status thresholds by the end of this month. And once choices are made, kits start arriving shortly after the holidays. So while you may miss SE benefits during December, you're quite likely to have your new SE card by mid-January and your new status will appear January 1st when the 2007 numbers vanish.

Shortly after your miles post you should see your status change on the AE web site from E to SE. when that happens, call AC reservations and have them remove and then re-input your AE number. Presto you will then appear on the manifest as SE. That could be very helpful if you are trying to upgrade to/from Asia.

My friend crossed the Elite Threshold on 15th November but as of today still no note of Elite status on website. How long should this take?

He will get an email mid December requesting him to choose his 2008 options. In mid January or early Feb he will have the "E" status for 2008 expiry Feb.22,09. The package will come in the mail shortly after

I crossed SE on Nov. 22 - jut curious if anyone else has received this "quasi-early" recognition. Maybe the sweep will be today as its the first business day after Dec. 1?
why do I let myself get my hopes up?

I am officially SE per website!
I wasn't this morning, but I am this afternoon!
I was sure I wasn't going to get it until January since I crossed the threshold on Nov 15th.
AWESOME! So what's the secret handshake?

Me too! I'm only at 93 segments, with 94 and 95 scheduled for this friday. I was not expecting to get SE this way at all, but I'll take it. I better make sure I take those flights to ensure that what AC giveth, AC does not taketh away.^

Yep, logged in tonight to find Elite status even though I've haven't had all of my miles post. Technically I'm 363 miles short still. Checked my aeroplan registered e-mail address expecting some sort of congrats e-mail...but nothing.
