Yup; it'd definitely make it worth paying the $450 AF.

Don't clear yet, but I'd say the chances are significantly higher than I originally thought.

Did this only work with an open Plat, not just any MR points?

What are people so exited with this promo? Just because you can earn miles on the tickets? (and status I guess)
You can say what you think when you think what you say.

1. Status.
2. Earns miles.
3. Gives another option for redeeming for UA and AA
4. Easier to earn MR than UR and AA now.

You needed an Biz Plat to get targeted.

No reason not to close now, unless you're hoping you'll be targeted before it's rolled out (if it's rolled out).

Can just reopen when and if it is.

I don't know what AJK source is, but IMO there is no chance that American Express will roll out the promo as is.
