Yeah I saw this
Pretty I'd say unfair to those who are early birds and purchase and redeem the points sooner
Like I did few days ago - redeemed a substantial stack of around two dozen cards

the main reason behind this round of promotion is to celebrate mid-autumn festival (9.14) and China national day (10.1), as they advertised on CN platform.

Gotcha - also definitely encouraging folks to redeem their cards. Many seem to not have done so

Right now, you can get an extra 50% when you redeem your cards.
Does someone have any information about when this end please ?

No no - this is a 50pc bonus points redemption scheme - NG did something similar last year October

On another note - NG have finally fixed the CRP Vote vs Reservation contradiction - Thus a CRP Vote (point deducted) automatically counts as a Reservation now, in their system.
Since this wasn't fixed thus far, I for instance, made reservations for wished models thus far - thus consuming an additional point.
Thankfully, this has been fixed - belatedly yes, but finally.
Also, they have been updating the CRP section thankfully - belatedly again - and I notice they do this a few models a day - but slowly a lot of the CRP wishes released thus far are being appropriately marked

Whoever made this wish - that's not an XLR, this frame was delivered in 2022
Has TAP ordered any XLR, though? I couldn't find anything to substantiate

They haven’t but I think they considered this is 2019.

If I'm not mistaken, TAP has their "A321neo" and "A321neo ACF" registered CS-TJx.
CS-TXx are A321neo LR.
No XLR I think.

Got it so if one looks at this planespotters screenshot -
TJE - TJN: base A321neo (A321-251N)
TJO - TJS: A321neo ACF (A321-251NX)
TXA onwards: A321neo LR (A321-251NX)
This interpretation would be correct?
It's a little confusing though as both the ACF & LR seem to share the same type number (A321-251NX) only distinction being the seating configuration setting the ACF apart from the base and LR

Afaik, the LR is "just" an ACF-airframe with additional center tanks.
The XLR has some distinct design differences hence got the new designation "NY".
