I would have totally flown this if PDX flights existed...how are there flights to GEG and BOI but not PDX?

It’s a good question about retroactively applying the promotion. The rules indicate that the promotion started May 22 but the announcement of promotion only came out on July 6. I also didn’t read the fine print of first two flights. I thought it was every flight through the end of the year. Bummer

Well, after I posted the question about retroactive bonus EQMs, I registered for the promotion even though I very likely won't go within 1000 miles of PAE during the rest of the window.
Today I looked at my EQM count (for a different reason) and the number was several thousand higher than I thought it should be. With a mix of Y and paid J/F fares on AS and partners, and the lack of EQM itemization on the website/app, it's hard to tell what happened. But something happened.
Anybody else have anything to report?

Update: no bonus miles, just the regular miles. Guess I'll have to call them
Further update: the way the web site displays the data can be a little confusing. So it turns out i did get double EQM. But the mileage activity does not show that, but the accumulated total is correct.

Seems like there are flights from PAE to GEG or BOI, which would get 500 miles cause they are short, at $109 for I-fare, which is 1.5x eqm. So $109 for 1500 eqm.
PAE to SFO is $159 711 miles, I-fare, so $159 for 2133 eqm.
Or if you get a saver fare for $69 SFO PAE round-trip is 2844 eqm.

How does the class of service bonus work with the double miles promotion?
According to the Double Miles FAQ
Class of Service Bonuses will be earned in addition to double miles, but will not be doubled.
Would a RT PAE-SAN in F would calculate as 1081 miles flown + 1081 "double miles" + 1081 Class of service = 3243 miles x 2 for the RT for 6486?

Looks like I may be doings some MRs this fall, found a couple of days in November, pulled the trigger on an overnight RT PAE-SAN in F. Still on the fence if I will actually need the miles, end up making the trip.

Promotion T&Cs state "...earn double elite-qualifying miles (EQM's)...", no mention of COS, so I believe you are correct.
