141 MQS as of my last flight on Dec 6th, the good .... I was upgraded on all but 6 CRJ flights, the bad ... 141 MQS 
.
After 40+ years at or near this pace I only have 1 and 1/2 more years to go to retirement unless the company offers an early buyout option next June (I can only hope).
I will add that I am one of the rare folks here that actually thinks my airline does a pretty good job, especially my friends at the MCO Sky Club! ^
Happy holidays as well as happy travel days to all! :-:

I too made diamond on MQS's. I have 146 segments and 85,000 MQM's. About 60% of my segments were on the dreaded CRJ200! 
I think for people like me, they need to give us a choice benefit of a special seat cushion for all of those CRJ flights! I haven't flown for almost a month now and my butt still hurts!

Congrats! Before moving to RIC did 103 segments while living in ATL, that about wiped me out. Finished 2012 with 84 mqs And 126k mqm. Skidded into DM barely and a quick trip to HNL and ICN will get 2012 mqm off to a fast start!

Oh, that's right, when it comes to MQM DL awards extra points because of the higher fare. Sorry, as a MQS qualifier I try to forget that DL treats our more expensive purchases the same as LUTs. MQS money must not be as important or worth as much as MQM money.
