May be targeted - it doesn't show in my account. Of course, we've seen other promotions rolled-out to different account over the course of 1+ days; so, it may appear in my account later.

So far nothing for me. My wife received the triple offer and my two minor sons both received the 50% offer. My wife is my companion and my kids are always booked on points so this doesn't help us.

I received the 50% bonus offer as well. Does this 50% bonus apply towards tier qualification for A-List? It makes no mention so I'm assuming "no".

No. Not A-List and not CP.

In the fine print.

Really? I don't see any mention at all about "tier points" hence why I asked here...

There's more fine print (those are just the "details") than that for promos - be sure to read the terms & conditions (like the following from a post earlier in this thread):
