Get back Silver Elite Status
Besides doing the CO 10K challenge in 90 days does anyone know how to get back Elite status after just missing the cutoff? THanks.

Fly 25000 EQM or obtain 30 EQP during the 2011 calendar year.

250000 EQM... heh. Do that 4 years in a row and you'll have lifetime silver elite status.

I believe this is a targeted promotion, so it might not be available to the OP.

At the end of the rainbow. Or in the mail/e-mail. This is a targeted promo, possibly aimed at high spenders.

Silver Status with PP Card?
Does the Presidential Plus card actually give you real Silver elite status that would also be honored by Star Alliance or is it just a pseudo-elite access privilege for CO flights only?

Recently lost my Gold status and am thinking of responding to a mailer for this card.

The promo says call the One Pass Service Center at 800-554-5522. It may be targeted, but can't hurt to call and ask.

The Presidential Plus card gives you Elite Access, but it also gives you 1000 Flexible EQM for every $5000 you spend, so spend $125,000 on the card and you get 25,000 FEQM which you can transfer to EQMs and get silver.

Wait for Chase to announce a credit card that grants low-tier elite status. Then apply and qualify for it. It's a cinch.
