Smile AA/Delta/or Alaska - (help) need 1800 miles from Seattle for status by end of year

This is my first post and I've been reading the great MR ideas on here - I'm unsure how you guys find these deals. I looked at the google matrix but have no idea what's going on there. Anyway, any suggestions on how I can achieve 1800 miles by end of year would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks!

If you are looking to fly over a weekend SEA-LAX-SAN-LAX-SEA $296 AA/AS mix this weekend.


Good luck, and welcome to FT ^

Are you signed up for double MQM's out of Seattle on DL? Any short flight (500 miles) roundtrip will do -- 2k MQM's.

Double MQM is for Skymiles only. As you are suggesting you could use AA to earn miles, I assume you're trying to earn for Alaska? In which case the Double miles promotion for DL will not apply to you. Just FYI.

I just tried to enroll and I get the following error message. Any idea what might cause that? I do already have a multi-leg itinerary that has a few flights out of SEA.

As previous poster said, the DL double miles promo will do you no good if you are attempting to earn AS status (the fact that you listed AA flights suggests that you are going for AS status). The person who suggested the program was apparently confused and thought you were going for DL status. The DL promo will only earn double DL Skymiles MQM's. You will not earn double AS qualifying miles by enrolling the program and there is no way to transfer DL MQM's to the AS program. Further, if you read the T&C's of the program, you will see that the double miles does not apply to already purchased tickets. Only tickets purchased after registration qualify.
