Would that be double miles on top of the elite bonus?
That is, would a one-way earn 7415 base and EQM miles, 7415 RDM through the promotion, and up to 7415 RDM based on elite status?
Earning double elite miles (for a total of up to 30k RDM for a one-way flight) would be nice...

IAH-LOS is going to start w a 772. A 762 won't be sufficient for baggage and cargo weight reasons.
IAH-AKL can't do a profitability 772. Ran a flight plan IAH-SYD, and could carry 55 pax.

Although I'd love to do this flight on the 787, I'm doubtful they'll have them by the time the double miles promo expires. I just hope whatever plane they do use has the flat bed seats cuz it would suck to have to be on the old seats for this flight.

Delayed until 2012 due to the delay of the 787.

IAH - LOS will continue as planned with a 777 initially.
