Yes, I got one (I'm also 2 MM).
I'm also EXP, which tag gives luggage higher priority, EXP or 2MM. If you use both do they cancel out and luggage goes to the back of bus?
PS: I only fly with c/o, so my notes above are of "academic" interest (to me).

cutter eagle, the million miler on a light background, your million miler status but no AAdvantage status.
I’ve not received my EXP kit as yet, so I’m not sure what to expect.
Million miler status means bupkis on AA and less on oneworld (other than lifetime platinum), so hang on to those status cards.

I also received these - and am NOT on track to re-qualify for EXP. Thought they were a "consolation prize" as the address on the back fro from "Executive Platinum." (I currently have a PPRO offer but will qualify for PPRO by year-end and thereby may or may not get a buy-back offer for EXP that I may or may not consider, but just wonder if anyone who has qualified for EXP in 2018 has received them?)

Loyalty
More than the tags (4 million miler), I "loved" the enclosed letter regarding loyalty, and how we deserved these tags.
I find it ironic considering AA no longer cares about loyalty, as in 17 straight years as an EXP in my case. Instead all the new EQD requirements are built on the premise of" what have you done for me today", not loyalty.

Clearly something new they are doing. Will look forward to these as well as the new EXP tags. The old EXP tags (introduced in 2013 IIRC) are horrible.

It will be interesting to see if (and when) I do receive them, as all of my AA flights in 2017 were credited to QF..... Though I did earn a few miles from a hotel program....

Received my 1MM tags a few days ago - very nice - I like the white background with the new AA logo. Received my 2018 EXP package in June. The EXP tags are likely more significant to use, but I still appreciate the nice looking MM ones for my carry on bag. Classy act AA.

I noticed my million miller status was no longer listed on the tags i received for re-qualifying for executive platinum this year. I haven't received the million miler tags. Does anyone know why this changed this year?
