About 1.1M to 1.6M. I do fly a lot of *A internationally and there was a period where I booked a lot of B-fares to Asia.

I assume this means that only UA/CO counts in 2012? (I had thought the switchover was going to be sometime in the Spring).

2 Mill in sight

Anyone have a link to the one-off benefits we get when we pass 2 mill? Think there were 3 SWU
"Lifetime" Premier Platinum

No SWUs

I went from 460 to 680...assuming I have the same flying pattern I should hit 1MM sometime in 2014.

805K before, 1.073M after

Quite happy since I've never once flown in paid C or F, and have 3 or less Y/B/M fares for sure. Mostly 3 years of *A flights out of Japan plus a few DEQMs here and there.

Mrs. c1ue went from 727K to 930K - the last 4 years I've spotted to her are letting her catch up... Lots of DEQMs.

The bump went back a lt farther. Most of my flights were 1990-1992.

I was going reach 1 million BIS miles this year anyway, but because of the one time UA/CO EQM merge/calculation did I miss my chance at the million mile SWU's awarded by United?

I assume that I did, but I did not keep sufficiently good records that I can really be sure.

Just running through the star alliance flights I have taken and possible fare class bonuses, it's hard to see how I could get the number I got without DEQM. But maybe I've forgotten some flights.

I received confirmation from WHQ via email, after asking repeatedly, that the Class of Service Bonus was only from 2004 forward. I had 20 years of F&C fares that weren't added to my total.

Yes. In 2009 (the year of the DEQM) I had nearly 150K so it was noticeable in my bump.

2M will let you recover some of your benefits. You get the two annual RPUs. You will not get the 100% RDM bonus.

Too late; those EQMs needed to be in your CO or UA lifetime totals before by December 31, 2011.

Absolutely certain I did. I got a 350K bump. I did not fly enough *A carriers or business class to earn that many BIS without the DEQMs.
