Now that Delta has changed the game yet again here we go.......I am $8K away in MQD from making Diamond for 2024, and with a few more flights will have enough rollover MQM to trade for Diamond in 2025 as well. The MQM part of the equation is easily solved by going back to charging expenses on my Delta co branded Amex cards, and taking flights I need to take anyway by Dec 31st. The harder part is clearing the MQD threshold for Diamond. I have a trip to Paris planned in December. Under the current rules if I book a luxury hotel there through the Delta website and spend say $5000, will those count as MQD toward Diamond for 2024 or do I only earn MQD through Delta or partner airline ticket spend?
