What is OP-OP? It isn't in the Glossary

Sean001 Jul 1, 2015 11:52 am

MQS = 68 segments
UPGRADE= 55
OP-OP= 0
MQM = 91,700
SPEND =$13,800

Start_at_UIN Jul 1, 2015 11:53 am

MQS = 33 segments
UPGRADE=24
OP-OP= ?
MQM = 32,879
SPEND =$2550

Expected finish? Easily over 50k, but well short of 75.

MQS = 64 segments
UPGRADE=2
OP-OP= ?
MQM = 69,473
SPEND =$7,715

Expected finish ~ 100 MQS and 100k MQM...gotta spend some time on UA in Q3, so won't make it to Diamond.

I'm not sure either, though I suspect it's supposed to be Op-Up. That's short for operational upgrades, which is where Delta oversells coach on an international flight and upgrades people to business rather than denying them boarding.

Dave V. Jul 1, 2015 12:08 pm

MQS = 21 segments
UPGRADE= 7
OP-OP= ?
MQM = 37,742
MQD =$3,525

Expected finish ~ 35 MQS and 65k MQM. Will make GM and carry-over a bit for 2016.

baccarat0809 Jul 1, 2015 12:09 pm

Woops- typo - should have been op-up. fixing now.

emg2919 Jul 1, 2015 12:11 pm

Current level: DM

MQS = 36 segments
UPGRADE= 6 segments (yes, as a DM. Horrible)
OP-OP= 1 (ATL-LHR, 6/20 - IRROP, originally via JFK but wx)
MQM = 123,517
SPEND =$7951

Expected finish - 197MQM, 13-14k MQD spend. *Will hit 25k spend on AMEX for MQD waiver in September/October.

I would say I'd give up all my domestic upgrade opportunities for more Global Upgrade Certs, if anyone from Delta is reading.

Zeeb Jul 1, 2015 12:30 pm

MQS = 58 segments
UPGRADE= Haven't been keeping track. Probably around 20.
OP-OP= N/A (All domestic)
MQM = 73k
MQD =$8650

I'll hit Platinum on miles on my return home this week. I'll hit the spend on my way out on the 6th. Expect to end the year around 110k MQM so it might be tempting to do a run for Diamond, since the new MQD rules have made rollover mostly worthless.

thoiboi Jul 1, 2015 12:31 pm

Current DM

MQS = 79 segments
UPGRADE= #FCM
OP-UP = 0
MQM = 123,340
SPEND =$11897

Re-qual for DM after tomorrow return flight home. Hit both MQM bonuses for Delta Plat Amex already..

Tibs Jul 1, 2015 12:36 pm

MQS = 28
Upgrade = 100% if you consider I paid for all of them via FCM
OP-OP = N/A
MQM = 77,188
SPEND = $4068

Expect to finish around 105K with current bookings through November.

DL-Don Jul 1, 2015 12:46 pm

MQS = 53
Upgrade = ~90%
OP-OP = N/A
MQM = 416,228*
SPEND = $31,820

* Includes 305,096 Rollover MQMs

Expect to finish: does it really matter?

SEA-Flyer Jul 1, 2015 12:54 pm

MQM: 33k
MQS: 12
MQD: 3k

Should finish
MQM: 130k
MQS: 35?
MQD: 20k
Backend of the year has a lot more travel than the first part.
