Thanks. That Consolidation site was great. I remember some discussion on the Delta thread about flights departing from those airports receiving double MQMs. Then there seemed to be some confusion about the flights outside of the US.
The last time I read the thread (which admittedly has been several days ago) the consensus at that time seemed to be that to qualify for the double MQMs a person would have to fly non-stop from one of those four airports to his international destination. Since I imagine very few international flights originate from those four airports I did not pursue this promotion. None of the international destinations where we travel or wish to travel originate non-stop international flights in any of those cities.
It also seemed to me that in order to be eligible for this promotion you had to be invited to participate. Some forum members were reporting that they had received email invitations to participate, and others did not. We did not receive any invitation. Is it still possible to participate in this promotion, and if so, how would we register for it. I assume I should register prior to booking the flights?
I searched on the general DL web site under the promotions menu and found absolutely nothing about this promotion.
So, let me see if I understand this correctly. If I fly out of Nashville to Sydney and return I will receive approximately 14,000 MQMs plus a 100% bonus of another 14,000 MQMs under the terms of this promotion? So I would end up with a total of 28,000 MQMS? I would also receive 14,000 regular ff points as well as the Gold Medallion 100% bonus of another 14,000 ff points.
This promotion is good until Dec. 31, 2010, and if I leave Nashville, land in LAX and change planes to go to SYD I will still get the double MQMs?
This seems exceptionally generous, and I have read it several times trying to make sure I understand it correctly and there is no fine print in terms and conditions that would foul me up.
If I am reading this correctly, and if we are eligible for the promotion, if we took the trips we have planned for the rest of the year from Nashville we would end up with about 67,000 MQM's, giving us Gold Status for 2011 and a carry-over factor of 17,000 MQMs for 2012. Is this correct?
I know I seem dense, but I am old and unfamiliar with the process of maximizing my MQMs. If what I have written is accurate, would someone please tell me if my husband and I can register for the promotion and how we should do it?
