The maximum is still 10,000, with about a 7.5% price increase from last year.

Hmmm, are the prices "personalized"? My offer is:
2,500 for $595
5,000 for $895
7,500 for $1,195
10,000 for $1,495
I am only 243 MQMs short of Platinum, so I'm taking a little weekend trip cross-country for roughly 1/3 of what they're selling 2500 MQMs for (to me). I'll get twice that many MQMs and actually see an interesting place.

Good thing I was already bent over when I read the prices....
I got rwoman's prices, which are really ridiculous. Thankfully I am not in need of additional MQMs at the moment.

5,000 for $895
7,500 for $1,195

My pricing as an FO is

7500 for $995

I am sure these are better prices than the ones

My wife's pricing with no status is even lower priced.......

I'm a DM descending to GM next year. Have not hit 50K MQMs this year, but my Amex Reserve bonus will push me over when I get off my lazy *** and do the transfer.
