Rollover 45K (by stopping at 120K). After 80K, earn Diamond again.
And that does not equal 110K earned SkyPesos ... it could be much less or much more depending on one's flying patterns.
You're right; I forgot that earning were per dollar and not per mile. The difference is likely to be much less.
--Personally, though I used to get upgraded regularly as a GM a few years ago, this year as a DM I have just barely made it for many of the upgrades I've gotten. It's the way things are going. So I do think there is a meaningful difference in frequency of domestic upgrades between PM and DM, up to you how much you value that.
That's my experience too.
