4.5 million paid BIS documented across 3 alliances at 60. First million at about 30. My neighbor has 10 million plus on AA and he just crossed his 55th.

Don't forget MM used to include all earned mileage in most programs.

Similar, I am at about 4.5 million BIS across all carriers ( well, with F and J bonuses), only only 1.5 million with AC - my largest single one.

I earned over 2MM on DL, then left because of the upgrade policy (YBM only) and no F class. I passed 1MM on AA last year...I'm 55. I was *A gold for a few years as well, but really never liked UA's premium product.

Ditto on the 1mm. Travel has dropped off though so wont make 2mm in your timeline.

I started flying Delta before a Frequent Flyer program started so there are more miles for which I never got credit.
