MQMs: 125,455. MQDs: $12,496.

So...this is Purgatory.

I knew during the flight that I'd make DM on miles for the flight, but I wasn't sure about dollars. 4 bucks short.

How about some rollover MQDs?

Anyone else in the same/similar boat?

I'm at 76k MQMs but about $2k short of the AMEX MQD waiver; so I'm stuck at GM for the next couple of weeks. I will reach the magic $25k in charges by the end of the month, but too late for my trip this week DCA-JNU (I did get upgraded on the SEA-JNU segment, and probably on the JNU-SEA segment, but looking grim on all the other segments).

You're always going to cross one threshold before the other; I'm simply bemoaning my little first-world-problem of being $4 short.

Wondering if anyone else has gotten this close, sans cigar.

I'm $4 short of the GM MQD right now, but as I'm already DM it doesn't matter. Will hit the Amex Waiver next month...

while I sure understand that people like to vent their frustrations, these threads are getting REALLY old REALLY fast

I booked an UP fare coming back from Boston to hit the PM MQD threshold, but purchased the wrong fare and was $6 short, but with 96k MQM, so not as bad as your experience.

Thankfully my MQD has shot up since and I'll hit the mark before I get to DM MQMs.

you do realize there are still 6 months left in the year to get to DM?

I think OP was hoping to be DM for his next flight.

Instead, I would be in favor of abolishing the rollover MQMs.
