Here we go again.

You might have seen my recent post on possibly upgrading to American AAdvantage Gold status that I posted two days ago.  I didn't think I was eligible but I registered the last time this was running.  I called after 10 business days and I actually was eligible.

If you spent 10 seconds signing up for that, there is now another offer for Platinum Status that may be worth signing up for.  This is meant for people who were targeted.  So if you didnt get something in the mail, you probably won't get this.

1. Click here to sign up:  http://www.aa.com/platinumoffer (asap but before 9/27/13)
2. Login to your AAdvantage account
3. Enter the Promo Code: HVDPR

If you are actually eligible for this, you'll be upgraded to Platinum from now until 12/31/13!  If you fly and earn 9,000 elite qualifying miles or points from Oct 1 through Dec 31, you'll keep Platinum Status through 2/29/15!  Maybe you'll be enjoying upgrades from coach very soon!

I posted about a similar Gold upgrade and Platinum upgrade offer recently.  People applied for these and American Airlines quickly took them down.  Read more talk about this promo Slickdeals or LoyaltyLobby or
