I completely agree but I'm totally perplexed by it. Surely, not everyone reaches 1k by doing mileage runs. I would guess its in the single digits of 1k's why on earth would you alienate your best and second most profitable group of flyers???? I initially looked at PQDs as a positive because I never have a problem meeting the 10k threshold. I am a prisoner to UA (EWR) no more, I will fly B6 to my south florida destinations, US to PHX and whoever can get me to my TPACs and TATLs cheapest in C.
