Just got this one today as well.
Not sure how they do their targeting, I didn't get the Birthday MQMs, but this one I get. Over 40k BIS already this year, 4k in August, 3k in September, but they miss me?
Better then a rock I guess

Yeah, I got this one too, it made me chuckle. ~142k MQMs this year, my last Delta flight was Tuesday, my next one is in 4 hours, I've got travel booked for next week as well, and have flown basically every week this year. Trust me Delta, I'd fly you more if I could, but I'd get divorced...

I'm just the opposite. I actually haven't flown DL since May, but I did not qualify for the promo.

120K MQM so far, and in the middle of a trip, but they miss me, too. Appears not to be targeted as I just registered my entire family.
Edit: Must be targeted afterall...

I got it and registered...but what if I already have flights booked for the next month, will I still be eligible? or do I have to book and fly them in the time period?

I just got this, too, and have no clue as to why. I'm Platinum and, while I may fall a little short of Platinum this year, will easily make Gold. And I just flew roundtrip from SLC to Geneva last week.

targeted probably just means randomly selected by some computer that really doesnt look at how much the person flies. so lets just take the miles and go w/ it.

My last Flight was Sept 12-13. I canceled yesterday's trip because I got done what I wanted by mail. My next booked trip on my Delta Itin's is for Oct. 29, then Dec. 4.
I am looking for a little rest from traveling, and I am hoping another trip does not come up before Oct. 29, but if it does I will take the bonus.
The bonus is targeted because I gave the link to a friend who got the not eligible message.

225,000 MQMs this yr, flew in 1C yesterday, FA's recognized me from previous flights, GA in SD knew me on disembarking, and Delta still misses me... I'll take the miles though. Thought getting the email was funny though.
