With the announced changes, would be great to get everyone to list their 2013 status level along with their 2012 Delta spend, how many MQM's they earned, etc. then look back and see where we all stand with MQD's.
For me:
Based on my total spend (what counts to ME), I'm spending $0.092 per MQM. Delta will credit me for $0.071 per MQM, leaving me well short. I'll need to spend roughly 30% more per ticket in order to qualify.
- 2013 Status & MQM's
- 2012 DL/Skyteam Spend
- Estimated MQD - subtract taxes and non DL coded/ticketed flights. Or just count it all if, given the new policy, you would have purchased it coded/ticketed differently.
- Notes/Extra: give an idea of what the travel mostly was (i.e. domestic econ, domestic first, international econ/business, mileage runs, mix of a few, etc)
For me:
- 2013 Status: Diamond, 128k MQMs including 12k rollover.
- 2012 Spend: $10,625 (includes $600 in change fees)
- Estimated MQD: 8,185 (subtracted change fees and taxes. all flights would have qualified)
- Notes: all domestic, with one hawaii RT. 70% is on LUT fares, 25% on KQH fares, 5% on discounted first. No mileage runs, all business travel except for Hawaii. In all it was 24 round trips out of SFO/SJC mostly to midwest or east coast locations.
