Help!! 1275 MQMs needed.
 
I need around 1275 miles to to reach Delta Skymiles Platinum status (first time ever) and understand that I just have 3.5 weeks left to do that (before the end of the year). I have no plans for flying; are there any other ideas? Help please!!

Hilton has a MQM deal going on. but it ends 10th of Dec. i think there is still time for you to register and do 3 two night stays to get 500 MQMs per stay. not cost effective unless you can find some cheap deals.

Hilton/DL MQM promo

ETA: just pay attention to the excluded hotels and booking codes.

There's still time to make plans. A quick trip is going to be the quickest. most cost-effective way to go.

Kayak.com airfares from you location (unknown since you dont have it on your profile). DL has been running some cheap airfares and you can do an MR (mileage run) and bang out the miles on a same day round trip.

New MQM promo for donations, $250 = 2,500 MQM

Not the cheapest way I'm sure, but at least you can feel good about it :)

Cross-posting is a big no no on FT:

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/delta...-year-end.html

Besides, MilesBuzz! is not the right forum to request mileage run assistance. Other than the good suggestions upthread, you probably should spend some time in Mileage Run Discussion Forum and familiarize yourself with forum stickies (such as this one: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/milea...lick-here.html), so you may get a good head start.
