You could send the AAdvantage department a note via the "contact us" webforms on the AA.com site. Or you can call and ask for AAdvantage Customer Service.

Qualified for PLT on 12/18 and when I got home 10 days later my 2014 card had finally arrived. Nothing for 2015 yet, but I ain't expect it to arrive anytime soon.

2015 Elite Status Cards (when are they coming?)
Has anyone started receiving their cards yet? I know the FF merger was a huge undertaking so I get that it might take a moment. In all the communication I've received or seen, there really hasn't been mention of when to expect credentials.
I know that OW lounges should let you in based of BP, there is always a concern that you'll get some pushback. I have some int'l travel coming soon and I'm worried that my expired US CP card will start getting pushback on lounge access and the drink/snack benefit.
Sorry if this has been asked already, I did a search of the forums, but there really wasn't anything I could find.

2-3 weeks
I wrote to AAdvantage about this about a week ago with the same scenario of upcoming travel. Their response was:
Dear Mr. sosfo,
First, on behalf of all of us here at AAdvantage® Customer Service,
thank you for being one of our valued AAdvantage Platinum® members.
You should receive your new AAdvantage credentials at the address on
your account in 2 to 3 weeks, but the benefits of your AAdvantage
membership are effective immediately.
To demonstrate your elite status before then, consider downloading our
AA.com Mobile app (www.aa.com/app). With it, you may display your elite
status immediately on your smartphone.

I'm not sure if you can still do it, but I qualified for Chairman's after they stopped sending out CP packets and went online to print a card out myself. A few of the flight attendants have commented about how much easier it is on them to see that card than to look at a mobile boarding pass and read executive platinum when asking for a free wine bottle in coach.
If that option is still live online it might be worth printing one off, otherwise disregard this outdated advice.
