Does anyone know if the 50% medallion bonus for MQMs applies if I use the "Pay with Miles" option? I understand MQDs only apply for the portion of the fare paid in cash, but MQMs and MQSs apply regardless of payment method.

Remember, this is not an award fare booked in "R", "O", or "N".

Thanks for all the help!
PWM tickets do get full MQMs. You would be eligible for the 50% class of service bonus, having purchased a first class A fare. There is no MQM medallion bonus.
