Got Mine at the 11th Hour
I fretted all day that my new 1K card had not arrived but decided to wait until mail delivery tomorrow before calling. Then about mid-day FedEx droped off the package. My FedEx driver said that she had beeen delivering a whole bunch of these packages all day.
It was in a nice gift box with the new 1K MM card; a nice personalized MM luggage tag; 10 drink chits; a congtraulatory note on being MM; and a nice upscale 1K brochure. Overall it was a nice package and I am quite happy.
By the way on my NRT-ORD flight two days ago the FA who was taking meal orders said "I am happy to recognize you as a member of the Million Mile Flyer Club". When I made my selection she said "you got it" without any consideration for my second choice. I had no idea that the manifest identified 1K MM. I just presumed that all 1K's were dumped in the same bucket.
