But 10k bonus miles when I'm netting 200k miles a year - I think I'll pass.
For me most of the perks at 60k and 90k EQMs are worthless (although last year the 2500 EQM bonus did put me up to the next tier and let me get another two SWUs). It's all about the SWUs for me which is why I'm so anxious. I'm currently sitting on 6 SWUs and I'm going to be quite peeved if I can't redeem them because all of a sudden there are no more NW-operated flights. (would also suck to see EEP disappear in 2009, or to get more SWUs for 2009 travel only to find them not usable).
