Damn... LOL
I was under 600 miles (and another 118 hit so would have been under 500) away last week so you beat me. Bit the bullet and transferred Spg, but if you actually are the closest of everyone in the program, may be worth a call though I have found AA customer service to be pretty humorless (I messed up and went over my 100k max on one card by a few thosand and was hoping for some "love" but nada) over the last couple of weeks. They will probably just say to spend Apx $70 and buy 1k miles (very poor cpm).

Perfect examples of why the changes to the MM program are long overdue.

+1. Although it seems AA made more money selling RDM than selling seats, so maybe it should have been the Million Dollar program all along.....

Or, if they choose not to screw with their elite customers, there is another expiration date looming in the future somewhere. Yours.
