Just joined your ranks.
Hit 1MM last night 12/7 on UA2435 (IAD-SFO) over Omaha. Was on a mileage run (SFO-EWR-MIA-IAD-SFO) to obtain 1MM before the end of the year as my Platinum status was due to expire in January 2022 (but just got extended last week to January 2023). Was on target to hit the milestone last year but the pandemic hit and prior to flying again this year, I hadn't been on a plane in 570+ days. Flight crew congratulated me on my 1MM flight (as well as on the EWR-MIA flight). Luckily MIA had card stock boarding passes, so I was able to get my 1MM boarding pass there.
Currently sitting at 1001319 and will close the year there.
