Hi.

Last year Delta introduced rollover miles MQM (elite qualify miles) into its FF program.

This was brilliant.

Their analysis showed that many of their flyers would reach a desired tier (say Gold by earning 50,001 miles) by mid-year (say August) and then would stop flying Delta for the remainder of the year altogether so they could qualify at some desired tier in another program.

By rolling over qualifying miles, flyers could gain a 'head start' for the following year. This move came at a price; Gold benefits were reduced (shifted to Platinum). High flying Plats had a new tier available to them (Diamond) with pretty nice benefits.

My question: Does anyone know (or have any reliable advanced info) if Continental is planning to rollout such a feature in their program?

Thanks.
