This, to me, is one of the biggest hassles. Right now near the end of the year one checks PQMs and uses Award Accelerator or FLEX EQMs or MRs to hit an elite level, all the while tracking PQMs earned on credit cards to see that they are credited and whether or not they will hit in the right year, and whether or not you are over the card spend PQM limit ($5,000/yr in my case). Whew! And now there is an extra thing to track, PQD. This is even going to be more fun, as you are buying a ticket for travel in Dec and you are trying to figure out what the PQD will be. Add another column to your UA spreadsheet!
