Correct. The real winners in this game would spend exactly the minimum and earn exact minimum AQD...
If 10yr old cancels (postpones) return from the 26hr turn mileage run to Asia this wknd and uses points instead, he is on track to end the year at 100,004 AQM.
/he is already quite bummed it is not a 90min turnaround back on the same plane.

You people are all freaking insane.
I'm going to finish the year with about 160K. Mind you, that's in a 6 month time period (end of May to end of Nov). Still, I cannot imagine doing the 400-500 some of you are talking about.
I expect to do 250k next year and that's about all this body can handle. I only do half (at best!) of my BIS miles on AC so I will never get a #MMuffin top. Would sure be nice to have that excuse though.

Please keep in mind that there are others here that flew and fly more than me. There are AC FFs that do 600K+ AQM/qualifying miles a year... well, at least there were in the past, AFAIK.
In any case, enjoy.

I was going to post the link to the thread/post, but it's full of rhetoric so I'll just post my AQM dashboard pic from December 2015. Back then people were trying to call me out and didn't believe me.

Based on email exchanges between YEG_SE4Life and me, he says I was ahead for most of the year, but he is ahead now.
I didn't realize this was a race.
@WaytoomuchEurope
Correct.
....and I only speak for myself
Wait until the RCHHMP show up and argue the merits of collective insanity and FWPs

But those AQM bonuses don't count towards MM, do they? Or is it just J AQM bonus that counts towards MM?
