Maybe he has spent and unusually high or low amount with M of late? Maybe he has just taken or surrendered an associated credit card account? Maybe he has colleagues / friends / a partner who have / have not also been offered the promotion and they have discussed similarities / divergences in their travel patterns. Like most things in life, it's really not that hard when you think about it carefully....
