2579 base EQM
1934 - 75% COS - C fare on paid First Class Fare
1290 - 50% EQM promo on BASE MILES ONLY
total 5803 EQM total one-way.
(back in 2021 / 2020) this would have gotten you 6770 as it was a different way to apply the 50% bonus....

just switched 10 Nov DCA-SEA to DCA-SFO-SEA
and since I’m going to be on the east coast the preceding weekend, I found a not-unreasonable turn (EWR-SFO-JFK, 730pm Sat to 730am Sun) with U availability

The speculation on https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/alas...it-2023-a.html is that it will NOT count, however I am unaware of any official confirmation either way from AS.

Can i dig up an old sore tack from the VX merger? I had to start at zero million miler count coming from VX...they said they would retroacively count activity for about a year...but received nothing......any update on this from AS or they wanting this to quietly disappear?

Thanks - appreciate the follow up there.
Grateful for the EQM bonus but would be useful if AS could include another 'counter bar' to the 75k/100k choice milestones on the Elite Status page...if it confused us on FT, I strongly suspect there general elite population will get caught up on it too.

But I wouldn't hold my breath on it, considering the mobile website (not to be confused with the desktop website or the mobile app) still has an Alaska-only EQM progress bar and no indication of required AS-metal segments.

Just for kicks that’s 2,000 flights between Portland and Seattle. At least now most (and soon to be all) are on mainline or E175 jets.

E175s! Perhaps a step up from earning MM entirely on Q400s.
