None of my flights (DEQM) have posted since the promotion came out.

Maybe I should call?

Neither mine nor my husband's have posted (DEQM, that is--regular miles have posted).


Edited to add:
They posted today, about an hour after I wrote the entry above.

Did you ever get a registration confirmation email?

Got the double EQM for my flights on 10/17-18. Nothing yet for flights taken 10/24-25.

It seems like if they do the next sweep before Dec. 2 (assuming they only double flights more than 10 days earlier), I will be short of EXP by 600 miles. I'll be going on a MR on Dec. 10 which has 4 segments. Do you think I can call in after the first segment (1253 miles) to ask if they can post those miles right away so I can get the status for upgrades on the remaining three segments?

You mean fly your first leg, call AA CS and request that to post and then reap the benefits for your remaining three legs that day?

Wow, I don't know. I'd guess the manual posting would even take a few hours to even a day to post.

Okay. It was just a thought. If manual posting does take a few hours, then I guess there goes that idea.

They don't do manual posting anyway in cases like this, so even if the few hours would work, it wouldn't matter. The kinds of manual posting they do are things like ORC. But even that takes until the next day or so to actually show up.

Cheers.

My DEQM from 10/22 did not post with this sweep.

For the DEQM, how is the bonus on segments less than 500 miles calculated? My flight from LAX to SAN yielded me 500 EQM, but will I get another 500 with the next DEQM sweep, or only 109 EQM as a bonus?

You will get 500 more elite miles with the next sweep.

As terminology can be confusing, I've usually seen the term "bonus" to refer to redeemable miles, especially in the AA offers, but I could be wrong.

Double elite qualifying miles (DEQM) can be calculated by the following formula:

2 x EQM

In your case 2 x 500 EQM

I called AAdvantage this morning and the lady was assisting me with another issue. She also checked to see if I was registered for the DBLEQ promo (of course). We started talking about the promo and she made a comment that they were looking to run the batch on/around Oct 31, again on/around November 28, and finally on/around January 2.
Thanks again for your earlier post MM983, hopefully the other 2 days you posted works for all of us.

I registered late, and based on my calculations the double eqm didn't post for the flights I was on before my registration. Did anyone else get the same?
