The way I earn PM & DM will probably be June will be PM and Oct will be DM each year. so should be able to spread out RUCs enough to cover if I need to use...routes I fly (HPN) almost always get F upgrade on that leg anyway.
Hold on. If your travel is 12 RTs MEM/BNA<>NYC each year and maybe a Caribbean vacation as a longer trip, how are you hitting PM/DM in June/October?
Assuming you're booking in coach since we're talking about RUCs, so the 12 RTs with a connection in each direction are 24k MQM, plus say another 3k MQM for the vacation, plus 20k MQM from the DL Platinum Amex.
Or do you have a bunch of super long-haul int'l trips and you're just looking for advice on the piddly domestic trips?
Just genuinely curious because the math isn't working my head and it's making me twitchy.
