bonus miles question
 

Hi,

Quick question -- looks like I'll barely make Gold this year. For the actual flight that gets me to the Gold milestone, will I receive Silver level bonus miles (25%) or Gold level bonus miles (100%)?

I hope that's clear.

Thanks!

Should be 25%, as you are Silver when you took that flight.

oh bummer. thanks for the quick response!

Yep confirmed. But you will get 100% bonus on all flight after that until FEB2013!

But what if the status changes before the return flight? Why would he not get 100% bonus on the return if that is the case?

Yes, once your status changes, you will earn 100% bonus miles for any further flights.

But that wasn't OP's question. The question was for the actual flight that puts you over 50,000 MQMs, what will you earn.

Guess I can read it both ways. But it answered the question I had regarding my flight next week.

It looks like if you have to fly multiple segments during the same day (i.e. to get to your destination) and say the first one puts you over 50K you will not receive 100% bonus for the second flight (unless the layover is so long that your status changes between flights)
