I have received my offer and made use of it the last few years. Be every careful to read the T&C's, but there have been some exploitable ways to game the system the past few years. (Business class + double segments (not possible in the 2018 version)
Someone indicated it ends December 31, 2018 but please take note that it need be booked and completed during the promotional period October 26 - December 15.
Potential loophole for 2018 - For those of you have received it, does it seem to you that Award tickets flown over this period would count toward satisfying the segment requirement?
Thoughts? [MENTION=787223]YadiMolina[/MENTION]??

Nice angle, it could work (but they will say it wont count imo). I would have thought that their term #15 would have stopped this, however I could not find that award travel will not earn miles/segment in their ConnectMiles terms and conditions

I did it the hard way this year for the first time. Will definitely wait in 2019 to see if I can fly less and still keep Presidential. If not, Platinum will be fine with me. Still 3 bags w/Gold and above. Still high on CPU list. Just don't get the GPUs, but I don't use them, anyway.
