American Airlines, as they did roughly twice per year, have targeted customers with status challenge (with instant temporary status) promotions for 2018. Eligible customers can register via following landing page where the qualification criteria is listed, with corresponding code:
- Gold:
https://www.aa.com/i18n/aadvantage-program/miles/program-offers/get-aadvantage-gold-status.jsp
Code: HVL8G / HV18M / HV18G
- Platinum:
https://www.aa.com/i18n/aadvantage-program/miles/program-offers/get-platinum-status.jsp
Code: HV18P
- Platinum Pro:
https://www.aa.com/i18n/aadvantage-program/miles/program-offers/get-aadvantage-platinum-pro-status.jsp
Code: HV18T
It's possible that one's AA account has already been selected but he didn't receive the EDM. Considering the fact that AA has been offering paid status challenge with Platinum benefits for as much as $500...This promo's worth a try.
