Im a long time lurker on this thread (since just before you made 10MM). As someone who just scrapes 100K BIS each year Im in awe of your flying, and to add to that your great informative posts on here.

Congratulations on the 20 million. Fantastic achievement. Maybe well bump into each other on a LHR flight on your way to 30.

Just missed you in LAX (my KOA flight ended up being delayed 4hrs), but I was assured that the LAX staff was well aware of the milestone. Congrats Tom! You are the undisputed GOAT.

With the flight from EWR departing almost an hour late and consequently a tight connection (60 minutes) and Tom being a GS I wonder if he will get the VIP treatment and a Black Mercedes to drive him from gate 76B where he is due to disembark to gate 77 next door where the MEL aeroplane is parked. It would be fun to have the black limo inside the terminal for the 100 foot drive.

Congratulations Mr Stuker.
Please share with us curious minds what the festivities/events/recognition awarded for you. I hope it matched the level of your 20 Million milestone.
Safe Travels.

Congrats Tom! Make sure you and Dar celebrate with a Mai Tai as you pass us on Maui or your trip to OZ.

Is Tom getting on a flight to Melbourne? Saw a guy giving a speech outside the gate. I'm at the next gate flying to IAD. When do I get that treatment? LOL


Oh and if that isn't Tom, apologies to whoever I just posted a picture of.

So does United credit your miles more quickly than everyone else, or do you have to wait a couple of days to be "confirmed" as 20mm?

When you beat Tom to 25MM. Even getting to 10 or 20 would be old news to UA now.
