American Airlines Double Miles and Accelerated Elite Status Promotion (Targeted)
Several TPG readers sent me an interesting promo they received from American Airlines offering double award (not elite) miles on all travel from February 8, 2012-May 31, 2012 and offering an accelerated route to Platinum (10,000 miles) and Executive Platinum status (25,000 miles). The earned status is good until February 28, 2013 unless you requalify with either 50,000 or 100,000 total miles by December 31, 2012, in which case your status will be good until February 28, 2014.

The email clearly states that this offer is targeted, however I've been able to register for airline promos that I haven't directly received in the past, so it doesn't seem like there's much risk in trying. It accepted my registration for this one and I even got an email.
I'm personally at around 80,000 EQMs for the year, so I'll qualify for Executive Platinum the old fashioned way, but double award miles on my upcoming flights would be nice!
The email:
