Initiated Hyatt transfer on NOV 18. Posted NOV 22 (they batch every 2 weeks).
Program to Date Miles 2,000,073
Was planning on bringing my lifetime balance to 400 miles short of 2MM and holding off until 2012 but have two unexpected trips to UK last week of NOV. Hoping I'll get the eVIP in time.

Don't worry
So, I just crossed through the one-million threshold last week. The miles (credit card spend) putting me over the edge posted on Thursday, 11/17 and had an activity date of Tuesday, 11/15.
No sign of the eight 500-mile upgrades yet, nor an e-mail from anyone at AAdvantage.
I'm just a little nervous as the December 1st deadline approaches, but my Program-to-Date Miles balance is a 1,003,000+. Do these million miler upgrade deposits happen on a certain day of the week? Just trying to make sure I'm all set before the program gets a little more strict.
Thanks!

According to AA, eVIP should be deposited within 48 hours.

However, I made LT Plat this morning and eVIPs deposited in the evening.

Rock and Roll - made it to 1M
Just cracked 1M on Sunday - miles showed up yesterday. AAngels on EXP line punted me thru to someone who cheerfully guaranteed that I'd see the bonus miles from the soon-to-go-live MM program, rather than the ##@R$#@$ stickers - and within in a couple of days at that...
...days like this I'm glad I stayed away from UACO despite being based near SFO!
...and just realized I have yet to update my FT profile! <edit: just did that now>

Today is Nov 22 and I have not yet received a new card. The email indicated, "To recognize this important milestone, you will soon receive a new AAdvantage Platinum® (oneworld® Sapphire) card with the distinctive multi-Million Miler emblem that indicates your 2,000,000 mile achievement."
Try the boarding pass with your status printed on it, or ask the Gate Agent to print something with your status. The latter worked for me several years ago when I was trying to access a BA lounge (had recently gone from Gold to Plat.)
Good Luck!

Don't worry -- it takes about a week, but will definitely show up before the end of the month. The upgrades likely will post before the e-mail comes. (I hit the million mark on the 10th, the 8 stickers appeared in my account on the 15th and it only took a quick call to the Gold desk to convert them to miles, which appeared the next day. All of this happened before I got the e-mail from Maya acknowledging crossing the threshold.)
Thank you

I reached Lifetime Plat in late October and received a congratulatory email acknowledging the achievement in early November. The eVIPs (SWUs) posted quickly.
Today is Nov 22 and I have not yet received a new card. The email indicated, "To recognize this important milestone, you will soon receive a new AAdvantage Platinum® (oneworld® Sapphire) card with the distinctive multi-Million Miler emblem that indicates your 2,000,000 mile achievement."

I did it. I hit 1MM Gold a day or two ago. I had to use 1500 SPG points earlier this week to put me over the edge, but am there. I haven't received the 35k bonus from doing it yet or the letter or cards or anything, but assume they will all come soon.

1 MM... Almost there...
I need only 367 miles to reach one million prior to the AAdvatage changes at the end of the month and I don't think the credits I have will be posted on time.
Does anybody needs LESS miles than this to reach one million?
Damn... LOL
