Who has the most & least MQM per segment?
I'm at 133k MQM and 25 segments or 5,330 MQM per segment.

Obviously, there is only a fuzzy connection with actual distances flown per segment given the various bonuses. But anyone else care to share?

I'll play along - PM with just about 1,500 MQM per flight segment, and that includes the triple MQM promotion (e.g. trip to Kona, HI) and recent elite bonus. Without those bonuses, average is around 950 MQM per segment.

I might have the least... I have 660 per segment. I just don't fly internationally, just shorter domestic trips.

I'm at 121,475 MQM for 32 segments (including AF and KL), which is roughly 3,796 MQM/segment.

Most MQM: ORY-RUN (in C) 8,703 MQM
Least MQM: IAD-JFK (in T) 500 MQM

Wow. If you don't have any trips planned out already, take a MR and you could be at DM.

Me: 0 miles, 0 MQM's, 6 segments (all award segments.) I have 18,855 MMM...13,000 of which was from last year (BOS-CVG-ANC-ATL-BOS; BOS-FLL/PBI and returns, stole mom's UG seat on BOS-FLL, weather put us on a direct FLL-BOS flight and I was moved up to F and listed as a F pax. Also stole the CVG-ANC upgrade.) Needless to say last year was a big travel year.

Next year I'm estimating 31,000 MQM's with maximum of 20 segments.

About DM....what is the threshold? I've been away for a few weeks, so I'm quite behind...

And yet your profile has you at a Silver...

I'm averaging 1498.8 MQMs/segment. Most is FCO-ATL in coach at 5015; least is 345 MQMs for a ATL-IAH flight...

I'm sure there are some that have an average under 500 MQMs as well. Some short-haul only flyers in coach that might have had a couple of CO trips...

I'm waiting for official notification from delta before I change anything (I should be noticing the change in a few minutes as their update should be occurring/occurred), and this is my second day back from vacation (already, two presentations need to be prepared and a large customs tariff bill that needs a markup)

How could you have 345 MQM's ATL-IAH?????????????? Minimum miles is 500 and all fares earn at least 100% of the MQM's. The original "Welcome to the DL forum" still has it as LUT fares earning 75% but thats old. 75% of 500 miles would be 375...

Continental gives 50% MQMs for deep-discount coach fares, and I was on Continental metal on ATL-IAH...

Just under 2500 MQM per seg as a PM over 100k. That is an inflated number with the MQM bounus, probably just north of 2K MQM per seg for real BIS.
