Does AS Recognize 2 Million Milers? (Yes, Lifetime 75K)
Hey, All -- my friend, Dave, forwarded one of the AS threads discussing the number of people expected to maintain 75k or obtain the new 100k status. My question relates to the two million miler status.. I have heard over the years that two million milers are granted Gold75 for life, but I haven't seen that in writing. Anybody know anything about this level on AS? Thanks a bunch! julie

AS already grants lifetime 75K to 2 MM’rs,

AS does not have plans to alter the 1/2 MM benefit.

Thank you, Anteater -- somehow I missed that. When I have called, I haven't received consistent responses. Glad to see that it is in writing.

When I made Million Mile Flyer in 2013 an exec at AS told me there were two (2) Two Million Mile Flyers at that point with Gold 75K for life. As I recall, both were from the state of Alaska and had lots of business trips to the lower 48. It's a difficult status to reach, because all of it has to be on Alaska Airlines metal. No partner flying or bonus miles apply.

Bump to say hi to Julie, glad you're here!
I miss seeing the SEA-RDU MR bunch. Am waiting a bit to get vaccinated, but hope to be in the air again in March.

We'll hold down the fort, plane hubby Dave. Rod, Ken, Deborah, and I are on all the Wednesday flights. New faces doing mileage runs tomorrow. Miss you! See you in March!
