Finally reached 1MM BIS on IAD-BOS. Too bad I wasted my first 1MM on US, or else I'd be at 2MM and LT Plat.

When my RIC-IAD regional flight landed at Terminal A, an agent greeted me on the ramp and then I was driven to Terminal C for my departing flight to BOS. Coincidence that this happened right before my 1MM flight.
