I would to get something like this!

I haven't gotten this email, and what is interesting for me is that I sent an inquiry to Customer Care about a status match/challenge; it has been a week and I haven't gotten a response. I assumed they were swamped with the recent weather....

AA just offered me a Platinum status match
 

Just received this unsolicited email from AA. Is this new, or did I miss a thread where others have posted this? I have flown exactly ONE flight on AA in many years (MSP-MIA in 2012 in full-Y). Wondering if they did this based on my UA Plat status, or simply as part of the AA/US merger. Either way, sounds pretty nice...

How about Platinum status through February 28, 2015? Simply register, then start flying on American, US Airways or other select airlines* to earn 12,000 elite–qualifying miles or points between January 13 and May 31, 2014. That's all it takes to extend your newfound perks.

As an added bonus, we'll deposit twenty 500–mile upgrades into your account just for signing up.

Heh, I just started a thread on this, just a few minutes later than the OP!

Mine was for Plat status, and with 20 upgrades.

Assuming that mods will merge them.

I wonder if they're targeting *G members (UA Gold/Plat/1K) that flew a segment on US the past year. Brilliant move by AA.

D'oh, that must be it. I had a few US segments last year.

Poach Poach Poach....

What was your promotion code? I was surprised they only offered me gold.

I like the promo code: HVFG1 :)

Yes I am!

Same as yours, but a P instead of G!

Figure you're saving the fee that's charged for a Platinum challenge (if the AA wiki is up to date that's $240), plus they're letting you qualify on your choice of miles or points. Ordinarily a challenge is strictly points based. Throw in the upgrades and it's a pretty sweet deal. They're opening the door pretty wide to get you to walk in. :)

i have flown a ton of US and am 1K on UA -- no love.

I wonder how they decided to send these out to people. I got an invitation to go for Gold despite being 1K - so it probably has something to do with mileage on AA or US (although I took 2 business trips on US last year, so ...).

Interesting that the promotion code starts with HVF (high value flyer) - looks like AA cares - shame United doesn't!

I wouldn't say that. Doesn't UA still offer status matches to top tier AA flyers with a minimal amount of flying? It may come with different conditions than the AA status matches that have been out there, but they are a player.
