Early recognition - do flights need to be flown by Oct. 15 or posted?
Flew 95th segment tonight... Just curious if ill make it in for 2013...
Would be a nice bonus for all those ridiculous segments the last few months.

Okay, I flew my 75,000th mile on October 14. It posted today (October 17), and I was immediately able to see my new status, select my privileges, and get a new contact number for AC.
Or in other words, I'm now E75K, and I only have a E35K card. I really hope I get a *G card before I have to starting leaving my number off my boarding pass (so I don't cross 80k until November).

It appears flown by... as my flights posted this morning, and I've crossed to the next tier.
There is a soft deadline or exceptions from what I've read, but by how far into October or November/December is unknown. People's experiences seemed to vary.

Confirming that early recognition worked fine for me with flights posted today (Oct 17). I crossed 50k in miles based on flights on October 14, they posted today, and I'm able to choose my select privileges now.

I reached 35K on a flight that departed on the Oct 15th, landed on the 16th, waiting for the miles to post... Will be interesting to see what happens...

Anyone have any timelines on receiving the packages?
I crossed 50k and selected my privileges on September 17. I crossed 75k and selected my privileges on October 17. It's now October 21, and I'm still holding my E35K card (which is starting to cause issues in United Clubs
).

Same frustration. Can't be the bag tags, because my replacement 35K bag tags only took a week and were obsolete the day after I ordered them. However, I have not had issues. The UC at IAD did not even ask for a card. I showed BP and they waved me and guest in no problem.

I received my E75k package within 2 weeks. I am expecting my next package on Halloween, or November 1st.
Eups from crossing the SE threshold took 2-3 days. When crossing SE, got 25 Eups and selected 5 more. I now have my full allotment of credits.

All my eUps showed up a day after I selected them, and the status showed up as soon as the miles posted, but it's distressing to learn that my package is taking so much longer.
Aeroplan and @ACAltitude have said 4-6 weeks.
I called last night (2155 PDT, so I did not get to talk to them long
), and the agent said it should arrive within 2 weeks. She also said they wouldn't send out an E50K package for me because I received E75K only a month later. Those two statements contradicted each other, and I pointed that out. She said I'd need to talk to a supervisor, and since they were closing, there wasn't one available.Guess I'm calling back today to make sure the thing's been mailed
