I think it has always been 24 months. The Sapphires I believe are 48 months.
You have to earn the 125k points in the same calendar year to get the companion pass. Best practice for companion pass is to get the Biz around Nov, complete your spend dec so your bonus points post in Jan. Also get the personal in Dec and complete your spend so your bonus posts in Jan. This way you get to keep the pass for a full 24 months.

I currently have the priority and have been putting off canceling it. Does anyone know if it will work if I cancel that today, wait a week, and apply for the plus?

I'm wondering the same. I just cancelled the wife's card today. She's had hers for over 3 years.

In order to get the 2 year Companion pass when is it that I want to complete the required amount of points (I think it is 135,000 points)? What should I have as a statement closing date? Thanks.

How can you easily earn the additional 50k points to meet companion pass? Does transferring points from credit cards count ?

Two years ago, it worked. Co-worker did it.

Don't know about since then.

[[ Someone simultaneously posted 3 post above me, that the MDD is dead -- no longer works]]


Even so, this 85k offer is a great deal !

Transferring points from a credit card does not work. Easiest is probably signing up for a business credit card.

You get the companion pass for the remainder of the calendar year and entire next calendar year. You need to earn all your points as close to the beginning of the year as possible.

Do they allow you to get both the plus and premier credit cards to then use the bonus points to get the companion pass?
No, but you can get both a personal and business card at the same time.

is 24-month from bonus receiving date or last card closing date?

I did this a couple of years ago. Waited 2 days, and it worked fine. Just need to also make sure your bonus was more than 24 months ago
