I've even gotten a few friends who want to do this mile running with me. And all for the eVIP certs b/c Delta doesn't offer that except on expensive YBM fares.

Anyhow, jfkeze has thrown a potential wrench in my plan advising the double miles aren't posting when you take flights but sometime in the future. He said 6-8 weeks. Is that 6-8 weeks after each flight or it is anticipated that 6-8 weeks after the promo ends in Dec? Obviously this is a major factor in deciding whether to do this 50k MR if the bonus won't post until after the new year and therefore won't make me Explat.

Answer? Thanks so much...
