If i hit it, fine. But as always, nothing I am going to go out of my way to strive for.

No thanks.

No way I can do that.
So, nope. I guess as expected, no direct correlation to these.

I got 5 trips >$275 for 13k miles. Now it's not totally crazy to rebook some of my flights so I started looking into it. The question is does the minimum apply to the entire fare or just the PQP earning portion? I imagine the latter and taxes and fees are excluded. In which case I'll just let this one go.

4 x $200+ trips = 5,000 miles.

Useless. I just got 2500 for inoperable WiFi.

4 trips, minimum $200 = 24,000miles.

If buying a ticket(s) for my wife would also count for a trip, I might be able to do this...

3 trips, $200 min, 12K miles. I suspect I'll hit this organically barring a return to The Old Ways of March 2020-2022.

Trip are trips made by the named member / MP account. Purchases for other individuals do not count

3 trips spending at least $50 for 5000 miles. This one seems reasonable due to the low ticket threshold.

After not being eligible for any offers over the last 2 years, I finally got one.

3 Premium Tickets of at least $350 for 10,000 miles.

Those 3 economy tickets would normally be $550ish total. They want me to send an additional $500 for 10,000 miles. Sorry, not interested. Not even close to getting me to change my spending habits.
