You said the waiver is much higher? Or do you mean someone would need at-least 15,000 MQMs Extra on top of the waiver that would be good enough for a platinum/gold/silver. Or just atleast $15,000 in credit card spending and 125k miles? And cc spending can be on whatever, as I am aware or is it just flights?

I’m trying to shoot for Platinum as well, but trying to see if I can manage to get the diamond with miles? Like the person above Khanmin have stated, I would want to know if anyone has done diamond too? Interested to know what routes and how much did they spend as well as how long did whole process take. Is it doable with coach flights? I’m also in IAD and would love insight to anything possible to push me towards that.
