YTD EQM for Mileage Plan

Hi Folks,

I'm relatively new to all this. I started my Mileage Plan account in the summer of 2008, and as of the end of 2008 I had about 14,000 elite-tier status qualifying miles.

I thought that, while the miles were mine to keep, my elite-tier qualifying miles would reset to zero at the beginning of the new year. But looking at my account, they're still there.

Does that mean that if I fly 6,000 miles in 2009 (which I'll surely do anyway), I'll make MVP for 2009/2010? Or have they just not reset the counter yet?

Thanks!

EQMs were zeroed out at midnight 1/1. My guess is that AS leaves the EQM balance from last year showing in order to allow any late-posting miles to show up. I remember this happening last year. Believe me when I say those 14K EQMs will be disappearing shortly.

This happened last year and the miles were gone by about this time last year.

I dont mean to rub it in or anything ... but wifey's mileage finally posted today (for a 12/31 flt) and she's MVPG now

Its probably waiting for stuff to post. The rules are rules though. EQMs per calendar year.

sort of unrelated but sort of not...

the Mr. qualified for MVPG for the first time on our way to ORD 12/23. By the time we returned on 12/29, his status was already up to date and his boarding pass had those magic letters..MVPG!

I was impressed with the speed of both the miles posting and AS recognizing his newly upgraded status. We were already in F on paper certs but it was still nice to see. :-)
