None for me or anyone of the four in my family whose accounts I manage. If you look over on the Delta thread it seems like everyone and their mother got the MQM bonus...

Unfortunately, I didn't receive any MQMs in my SkyMiles account (which has a meager 10,000 MQM for the year from a few short-hauls I forgot to put my WP number in for). I suppose it ended up for the best it went into my WP account.
Programs: Most....Four elite air/ Four hotel higher levels - loved DEQMs - DL RWT alum

Well, darn my hol(e)y socks~~~I got it in my DL acct, (but not NW WP) !!!!
With DEQM (should have been TEQM, but we're working on that), I have qualified for FO (Silver) on DL SkyMiles this year. The flights were DL-numbered, but some were on NW metal.
Guess I'll have to do some B-I-S time and move up to GM... time to check out the weekly web fares...

Currently sitting at 74,352 for the year. This will be the first year I hit Plat. I looks like I just need one more flight.
Yup you and a million others. The problem is that Plat really now means Gold. At 150K you can get what we all used to know as Plat. The new name of the 4th tier will be "Double Platinum" but it should just be Platinum.
