Pretty much the same experience here. Some of my friends at work were skeptical of my MM claims; others, who had observed the final push of MR's, questioned my sanity (I later told them to get in line). So when the nice AS lady from Anchorage was here in Juneau to drop off my mementos and attend to other business, I asked her to come by the office, where I had reserved one of our small conference rooms for a proper ceremony. Thus were the doubters silenced!

I would love that.

Even a FA saying something is more than I got from UA when I passed 1MM on them.

Here's mine:

So... umm... they don't count legacy VX flights...

What do you mean, "credited"? I flew the flights (many post-merger) with an elevate FF number on VX metal. I earned elevate points. Last month I converted my elevate pts to AS miles at a 1.3:1 ratio. I was Elevate Gold in 2017 (earned in 2016), but did not fly much last year so I only would have been elevate silver this year, if elevate still existed. So they made me MVP (not MVP Gold). This all seems fair; I don't think I'm due anything in terms of award miles or status. Those 500+ miles in my lifetime account are from a flight I took on AS metal (which happened to be post-merger).

I've only ever flown on AS once before that, RT to hawaii, about 5 years ago. I still have the emails about that flight in my gmail account; I checked and I didn't seem to have an FF number attached to that reservation. I thought I had created an account and applied credit after the flight, but I can't find emails about that in my archive so I probably just never got around to it. I used to fly Southwest back then so I probably didn't care.

As far as MM lifetime miles, I'm not sure if my VX flights with an elevate FF number attached should count.

A friend of mine is at 1.8MM on AS. He sent a screen shot of his mileage page which I will not post for his privacy. It does not show a countdown to 2MM. He fell to Gold in 2017 due to lack of flights but will be back in the air the rest of this year so he still has a good chance to get to 2MM.

AS Million Miler Gifts
 

Interested in others’ views here. I hit a million on AS earlier this year, and received an email with a link to several gift choices. I made my selection - a men’s’ travel bag - and awaited its arrival. Then, one day I received an email from the 3rd party they apparently use for fulfillment. Apparently they didn’t actually have what AS offered, and what I selected. Instead, they offered me four choices: a toy plane, wine, coffee, or a ladies’ handbag. I’ve been holding off redeeming my code ever since, because I don’t need a ladies’ handbag, I’m not thrilled with the wine or coffee selections and honestly I don’t need another shelf ornament. What would you suggest AS offer for flying one million miles on their airplanes? I would be satisfied with something like a laptop bag or backpack, which is what motivated my original choice, Something I can actually USE. Their choices today reveal a lack of imagination, creativity, and care.

You could contact the AS MM team and express your concern. They may be able to help.

Million Miler Question
 

As a 1MM, one of our benefits is 20,000 EQM's each year. This started in 2023. Any guesses when these miles will show up in our accounts? I know, it's only Jan. 1, but I am curious.

I know the 100K roll over miles won't post until February. Not sure if the 1MM miles will post then also.

It is now (nearly) a week later, and still no EQMs for this MM, but I can't find when they were credited in 2023. However, it appears four new GGUs have arrived with 12/31/2025 expiration dates.

The rumor is that the 1MM miles will post in February at the same time as the 100K rollover miles post. We shall see.
