82 EQMs short of gold at the moment, offered to extend for $399. No thanks, I already have a MR to MCO booked for (coincidentally) $82.

Got an email to renew my Plat for $1,199. LOL.
I have upcoming flights coming up so I will be Plat anyway... but this felt quite annoying given the latest changes to the program.

I'm glad to see such steep prices - limits the herd.

They have charged these prices for some years but whether enough people buy in the have a noticeable effect is another matter. Some people think that the status matching deals are the problem. Next year the front cabin will be full and even more people will earn status!

You can buy EXP back for $2,499 if you have 85K miles and are already EXP. I took AA up on it last year as I didn't fly until June due to my cancer treatment. This year, I will make it on legit BIS EQM's. So I suppose they just "gave it away" to me. Glad they did...on two-class UDU's for the year I'm 72/73.
