6 drink chits?
6 drink chits - for a million miles on the same airline?
Hmm...Let's do some quick math. I don't know what the RASM at UA is nowadays, but let's give them a generous ten cents per mile. If someone has flown a million BIS (butt-in-seat) miles, then that means that you generated $100,000 in revenue for that airline. (Yes, I know, not all MM members actually flew a million BIS miles. Let's not get sidetracked onto that argument.)
So the award for $100,000 is 6 drink chits? That better be some real fine champagne you're drinking. It better make Cristal Champagne taste like Mogen David....
