Yay, more free miles.

My last $220 or so ticket to the east coast resulted in 26,000 redeemable miles. Seriously, what is Delta doing?

I have this nagging feeling that it's time to cash out my delta pesos, er, miles before I build up too many and they get (more?) devalued because everyone has 1.12 kabillion of them.

Became Gold on August 26th, I got my 5000 miles today as well. Looks like I got to Gold just in time.

Got 5000 RDM Thank you miles as well. I did get the thank you EQM back in July as well. LAX based PE.

Upon further review, I see I got a 1000 Mile Plat Upgrade Guarantee for a Delta flight -- on which I was in fact upgraded. Didn't know they gave them for DL flights -- last March I wasn't upgraded LAX-ATL and didn't get the Guarantee miles. I'll take this as a belated correction of that error

I got 15,000 EQM back in early July in the "EQM Thank you Giveaway".
Awoke today to find 5,000 "Thank You Miles from WorldPerks/SkyMiles".

I'm starting to like these "Surprise and Delight" style mileage awards, they warm the heart.

Platinum here for as long as I can remember (I'm only 31). Will be DM next year!

I guess this is advance thank you for whatever happens during the migration from WP to SM next month. Should be most intersting.

2 Silvers here, no miles posted. Is it just for Gold and Plat?

I received the 5K bonus. Thanks NWA.

I also received the 15K EQM bonus back in July. SEA-based PE here.

I think this is yet another sign that DL/NW are not planning another 2x-3x EQM promo. These bonus miles plus the fact that they re-sent the email about the 10K bonus per round trip (apparently it's a targeted promotion) tells me the EQM promotion ain't coming.

PS - I'm curious if this isn't a bonus for those who linked their NW & DL accounts before August 31. My accounts were linked.

Cannot speak for anyone else, but I haven't linked, so I am guessing that it is not in the criteria. Looks like though targeted to elites of one ilk or another from prior thread posts. Data point to add with respect thereto, children who are all WP General Members have not received the bonus.

Safe Travels!

Plat Upgrade Guarantee Miles

I received the 5,000 banked miles today and also found that my last five segments gave me the 1,000 mile Upgrade Guarantee. However, only the first segment had me riding in the back. Also, my Saturday flight shows only the first segment flown. I'll wait a few days to see what happens.
