Eligibility for Choice Benefits is based upon a status change to Platinum or Diamond Medallion within a given status year. Choice Benefits selections for selections for 2011 status need to be made by February 29, 2012; selections for 2012 status need to be made by February 28, 2013; selections for 2013 status need to be made by February 28, 2014.

Medallion Complimentary Upgrades are subject to availability and may not be available on all flights or in all markets. Complimentary Upgrades are not available in markets that are serviced with BusinessElite product. Complimentary Upgrades for Economy Award reservations and Pay with Miles will be upgraded to First Class beginning at the eligible Medallion tier window based on availability. Taxes (and if applicable, fees) for Award Travel are the responsibility of the passenger and must be paid at the time the ticket is booked. Award Travel seats are limited and may not be available on all flights or in all markets. Offers and benefits subject to change without notice.

Rollover benefit means Medallion Qualification Miles earned in 2012 above a member's earned Medallion threshold level will roll over to 2013 and count toward 2014 Medallion status qualification. Members who receive complimentary or gifted Medallion status are ineligible for rollover MQMs unless they earn more MQMs than the gifted status requirement. For example, if a member is gifted Silver Medallion status in 2012 and also earns 30,000 MQMs in 2012, s/he will be able to roll over 5,000 MQMs since the Silver Medallion requirement is 25,000 MQMs. Please allow 6-8 weeks for fulfillment of Choice Benefits. For selections made for 2011 Choice Benefits, companion status is good through February 29, 2012; for selections made for 2012 Choice Benefits, companion status is good through February 28, 2013; for selections made for 2013 Choice Benefits, companion status is good through February 28, 2014.
