Beware the EQFs
Reminder: Alaska requires 6 AS flights for silver, 12 flights for gold and 24 flights for platinum. (Or as they call it MVP/MVP Gold/75k).
As someone who has done something like 60k eqms and 30 flights, it kinda hurt when AS sent an email today congratulating on renewing my 40k status.
I recently moved from a hub (SFO) to a spoke (RNO) and now need to manage my partner airline flying, eg for me it used to be 80\20 ASand now
is inversed.

If you're going to jump the fence, at least respect the flora and fauna.

In lieu of the EQM, you could fly another 60 flights making sure enough are on AS to hit the 12 AS segment threshold. You could even fly on Saver X fares.
Before the segment requirements came into effect, you would still need something like 30K more EQM to move up a Tier.
