Here is the link to the only thread on AA that discusses rollover EQM. To me that is 100% of AA's and most people here are comparing EXP vs DM. I could have picked on a few comments specific to NW and saving their flyer's etc. I was not trying to be one the people that come across as a NW loyalist and unhappy with the world. I was just trying to be realistic about DM. It would surprise me if 75-85% of people think 50,000 miles to get a little better upgrade order, save the ridiculous change fee for awards, free SC membership, an extra elite perk (there were always two by 125K anyway) is worth the effort, especially when 50,000 miles gets middle tier all over the place.
