Not too bad for two connections through Denver from IAD, so like 16k EQM and about 9k regular = 25k EQM and all the upgrades. I'm a couple thousand short of my next 10k interval so another 4 upgrades should be in the bag this week.

I didn't know the Great Offer EQM miles counted towards upgrades, what a pleasant surprise
Question, were all your flights in "V" fare and higher or only the qualifying segments? I never did get a clear answer from MP on this matter.

May I ask what your qualifying terms were? I am trying to get my gf on the promo(if she qualifes) so she can keep 1P for 2006.

Thanks.
