Here's a better idea!

Gold Elite: 75k MQM`s
Platinum: 110k MQM`s

Also, that would make much more sense, given the many double MQM promos that are out there every year. I know it might sound snobby, but elite levels should award the ones that really fly a lot and not the ones that spend the most time on websites like flyertalk

Here's a better idea! Go back to the original intent of the program. Stop all the non-flying MQM promos and credit only butt in the seat miles.
