Tickets cost ~ $1900. Most fare are R class, except for the first run from zero to MVP which is Saver X fare.
Hiccups:
* Reach MVP during the trip but didn't earn MVP bonus RDM in subsequent segments. Called customer care and they added missing RDM
* On my last run to MVPG 75k, my reservation was stuck at MVP instead of MVPG. Didn't realize this until a fellow "road warrior" got upgraded before me. Called customer care, they were unable to fix that and they offered $50 voucher !!! I kindly declined and asked to speak to a supervisor. The supervisor called reservation and she was able to put me in F for 2 of my remain segments (one of them was BOS-SEA). She even thanked me for "flying for status". Also my upgraded segments were booked into F fare, and so I got to visit their new lounge in N terminal.
Congrats and welcome to Flyertalk! Great first post by-the-way! $1900 is a pretty sweet deal for 75K.....I moved from MVP to MVPG this year due to this promotion...my fingers are crossed for a similar promotion in 2021.
