OK, let's see:

MUC-LAX-MUC nonstop: 5,998 miles x 2 = 11,992 miles
Fly it 4 times: 47,968 miles
In weeroworld, that's "nowhere near 1P".

Now, let's pay those flights with a UA CC: 4 x US$ 510 translate into 2,040 EQM, add this to 47,968 and we got: 50,008 EQM. Bingo: 1P!

Got no UA CC? No worries! Let's fly those 4 trips via FRA!

That's (5,786+500)*2*4=50,288 EQM.
"Nowhere near 1P"? Nah, you already made 1P with that.

Still not enough EQM? Doing only 3 annual trips? No problem! Use the end-of-year double EQM promo and fly your trips via ORD or IAD on UA metal. More miles for you! And E+ access after you made 2P.
