DEN based. If this isn't it, I'll never make it.

The PQM includes quite a bit of DEN-FRA/DEN-MUC on LH. If those were UA metal I probably would easily make it; but come on UA, you have no direct to Europe from DEN. They also made EWR-OSL seasonal which removed my other 3 connect option to my normal destination for most of the year.

I still feel like I have a chance based in DEN, but I'm always amazed the number of high revenue fliers we have here.

I hope you make it but I never did (based in DEN) with spend of $44K in 2013 and $49K in 2014. I made it this year with $56K of spend in 2015. I also think they consider multiple years.
