Diamond Choice Benefits - Late Qualifiers in 2011

I think I remember an issue last year with this as well, but I just hit Diamond. Am I eligible for 2 more Choice benefits for 2011 as well as 2 for 2012? When I log in, I only see the choice for 2 benefits in 2012.

Any help would be appreciated, sorry if this is a repeat question

You're only eligible for the 2012 benefits since you're earning for 2012, not 2011. That was a glitch last year, which DL corrected.

You've qualified for 2012 status, which technically is 3/1/2012 through 2/28/2013. DL extends 2012 status as soon as you earn it, so you don't have to wait until 3/1/2012 to enjoy your new status.

Why can't we have more glitches like that? Instead we get ham sandwiches...

I qualified for both Platinum and Diamond for 2012.

On my Skymiles page, it is asking me to choose 1 benefit for Plat and 2 for Diamond (the standard stuff ...)

Must I choose either or both of these before 12/31/2011 in order not to lose them?

If the policy has not changed (and with Delta who knows...certainly not it's customers) then you will have until 2/28/2013 to make the selection. So I think if you are choosing either the Delta credit (which of course now has new restrictions) or the SWUs then choose them as late as needed so that they don't expire until later.
