Paine Field (PAE) Elite Miles Promotion
 
Please help me interpret these conditions:

Terms and conditions:Mileage Plan™ members who register for this promotion before their first qualifying flight will earn double elite-qualifying miles (EQM's) on their first two (2) nonstop flights between Everett, WA (PAE-Paine Field) and Boise (BOI), Las Vegas (LAS), Orange County (SNA), Palm Springs (PSP), Phoenix (PHX), San Diego (SAN), San Francisco (SFO), Spokane (GEG), or Tucson (TUS) flown between May 22, 2022 and December 31, 2022.

Not valid on free or award travel. Flights must be marketed and operated by Alaska Airlines or on behalf of Alaska Airlines by Horizon or SkyWest. Mileage for qualifying flights must be credited to the member's Mileage Plan account. Bonus elite-qualifying miles awarded as part of this promotion apply only to the number of miles that count toward elite status qualification and will not be available for redemption. All terms and conditions of the Mileage Plan program apply. Offer subject to change without notice.

So, does this apply for the return portion of the trip? If flying first class are all the miles doubled after the first class bonus is applied? Just asking for opinions as I might need one final flight to make 75K this year. Thanks.

In past promotions for double EQM, both directions have counted. AS always seems to write "between" to indicate such. You should get double of what ever EQMs you would normally get for F.

Was this targeted or do you have a link to the promotion? I haven't seen it. I normally fly out of SEA but this peaks my interest.

Thank you!

So am I correct in understanding that 2 round trips from PAE to PDX in paid F would net 8k EQM?

Edited to say I see PDX is not on the list and has no nonstop flights. Off for a second cup of coffee to see if that sharpens my brain.

And even if there were eligible routes, I interpret the terms to mean it would be double EQM for 1 round-trip (which would include two non-stops), not 2 r/t.

I'm glad you pointed that out!

Thanks for the great tip. A quick PAE-SFO for gold again this year!

Sweet, flying PAE to PHX next week, could use the extra miles this year to reach Gold. Thanks for posting, would've missed this!

Awesome. Thank you. I fly out of PAE to SAN on Sunday. Nice way to add a good chunk of EQMs since I assume this will double the FC bonus.

That’s what I hope. Please post and let everyone know.
