I booked 4 flights in the Nov promo bonus miles window (Nov 8th-30th). Just flew LAS-ATL on a RT flight yesterday. Standard accrual for a leg of this flight is 1748 miles one way, 3496 miles RT.
However, I got 3496 EQM and 5244 RDM for each leg of this flight. That means I got a total of 6992 EQM and 10,488 RDM from this trip posted to my account. That is 2x on status miles and 3x on redeemable miles. I have a Discount den membership. I wasn't expecting those amounts for EQM but wow am I super happy! I have three more trips left to take that were booked during the promo period: LAS-DEN LAS-MDW LAS-BWI While happy that this glitch occurred and is bringing me even closer to reaching 50k status (9.05k to go with this recent unexpected boost), I'm wondering if I should book one last quick trip just in case Frontier notices their errors and I still want to get to 50k status? I could do a quick mileage run from LAS-DEN... |

Im current 100k sitting at 57k miles for the year. I had enough flights booked to meet 100k again but decided thats too much flying so started canceling day by day. Maybe ill do my flight saturay and see if its doible miles for status. Its to San Diego so normally 4k miles.. if i get double Ill do the rest of the flights i have booked for next week and get 100k again. But its odd that i didnt get double from the last flight last week. |

None of this makes sense. I booked 11/20 and flew 12/4 and got regular qualifying miles and 3.5x bonus miles as discount den member.

It looks like a couple of folks who received the double status miles booked their flights on 11/20/22.
As I mentioned previously, I received double status miles and triple redeemable miles - and interestingly, I also booked flights on 11/20/22. Was there some other promotion/deal that we inadvertently stumbled upon? I’m just thankful that I can go over 20k miles with my next flight (and that I don’t have to take all of the other cheap mileage runs that I booked). Edit: ok I am debunking my own theory. I just saw that someone else booked on 11/20/22 and did NOT get double status miles. Back to the drawing board. 🙂 |

Got double qualifying miles on my flight yesterday. If I would have known my +1 would have come with, since it would have put her over the finish line for re-upping her status. Oh well.

I could do a quick mileage run from LAS-DEN... if they are cheap flights. Or wait until you see if you really need another flight. I am completing 100k on Alaska airlines this weekend and I can cancel with no penalty and funds go for future bookings so i had backup flights and the backup flights also had backup flights. And i am using one of the backup flights this weekend. |
Just completed the first leg of a mileage run for MCO>SAN... 2147 EQM and 5367 redeemable. I am DD and Elite 100k. Flights booked 11/20. So Im getting 2.5x reward miles and standard EQM. Apparently Frontier doesn't like me because I didn't get the 20k bonus miles from October with the 2 roundtrip flights promotion... congrats to everyone getting double EQMs. I'm jealous 😁

Booked 11/8 for my trip and got double EQM. Confused to say the least. I would have booked a lot more had I known this bonus was there, but right now it's tough to say whether this was an IT glitch or not.

Just finished 2.5/3 trips from the Nov booking promo period mentioned earlier in the thread.
LAS-DEN: I got regular EQM and RDM. LAS-MDW: I got regular EQM and RDM for one leg and the second leg has not been credited at all yet. LAS-BWI: I got 2x EQM and 3x RDM for the first leg. Will find out about the second leg near the end of the year. I'm so close to reaching 50k status at this point, but these mile accruals make no sense. Frontier is weird. Oh well! lol |
