Not sure how that applies to this thread, however if you booked on co.com you should get 100% EQM....and i'm assuming you did since the IAH-LGA segment came up correctly in T.

The 500-mile minimum doesn't apply to elite bonus redeemable miles? I just received 500 elite qualifying miles and 691 redeemable miles as a Platinum flying IAH-SAT. I was expecting 500 and 1000 respectively. If the redeemable mileage bonus for Platinum (and Gold) elites doesn't double the 500 mile minimum on these types of segments, I am going to be losing a lot of miles on this route and other intra-Texas segments.

No, for as long as I can remember the elite bonus is based on the flight miles.

The elite bonus has been based on actual mileage for a while now.

That I did not know since I've been crediting my CO miles to the WorldPerks program for a number of years.

Ouch. That hurts.

Is the 500-mile minimum EQM mileage still in effect for CO elite members?
