1) i think they do it based on the time you do the thing. the newest entry trumps the older entries.
2) people will complain its free status again

Got my 1000 points. Thanks!

~10 free membership or so is chump change compare to the millions of Amex / AA Exp Plat out there.


Given the fact you have to pay for your own YQ, where would the most expensive OW destination be?

The prize has an approximate retail value (“ARV”) of HK $282,479.25
That's over $19,000 USD per person...before taxes :confused: Sounds more like a F ticket to me.

Sap: 5,800
Em: 7,800

Currently at 320 participants.

1 out of 6780!

Not sure if "residing in HKG" means you actually have a HKG address, or if you just need to have the right of abode.

I can't find mine or any family member's name on the 1000 AM list :mad:

CuiDawei Mar 13, 2014 2:57 am

I just found mine and my partners! Were you definitely one of the first 1000?

percysmith Mar 13, 2014 3:07 am

Me, +1, parents, three colleagues, two classmates, two other FTers

I thought I screwed up a number of registrations...but we confirmed those friends/colleagues are AM non-MPO.
