Exactly, why would you even think about it?

With my current travel pattern, I should be reaching 1MM before I'm 33.

I recently met two kids on a SDQ-JFK flight who were traveling as UM and when the GA told them that they had to wait for all passengers to disembark at JFK, the older one told him "we do this every week, we know how it works". Talk about DYKWIA at an early age

I started flying Delta before a Frequent Flyer program started so there are more miles for which I never got credit.
How does a 5M tag look like?

Interesting that for each increment of 1MM, it took 7 years to reach the next level, or an average of 142,857 miles per year! But at the current rate of accumulation, where you've reached .4MM in 2 years, you should reach 6MM in 3 more years, so it looks like you're flying a bit more these days! Congrats on reaching these levels! I also read that the highest MM with UA has already reached 18MM! I wonder if anyone has heard of any DL flier who has even reached 10MM, let alone 18MM?

Here's a post from 2011:

Exactly like the 6M except for the numerals and the MM status does not show on the SC or AC membership cards.

The MM status shows on the FA's passenger manifest on DL but not on AA.

Glad to see you still have your KM status. That was a fun meetup at DFW that day. I've since lost my KM tag. Got chewed up by a dog I think.

I was wondering about the 7mm guy recently and tried to find that thread where he said he'd report back what the "customized experience" was he got for hitting 7mm. I'm still curious to know if anyone can find that post.

Fly on you KMer you!

Good to see you here. Yeah, my KM tag is a bit tattered at this point but intact. The flight attendants see it and they ask if I need a foot massage.
