That's a Wrap!
Welp, I have now officially ended my flying for 2005, having just completed my Premier Executive Emeritus re-qualification run for a total of 49,800 EQMs at 8.5 cents revenue per EQM - roughly 50% more then I spent last year.
For those of you planning 1K MRs and such, have fun! I'll be sipping margaritas poolside.

I'm sitting at 183,000 EQMs and still have at least 17,000 more to go. These are probably going to be all BIS miles too.

Given the title, I thought this was going to be a thread about the pros and cons of the Tuscan wrap, roasted chicken fajita wrap, or smoked turkey and cheese wrap...

A WRAP! 
What??? I've still got 10k BIS ticketed, and at least 10k more to ticket (likely more like 20k).
It's been a looooooong year.
Lihu'e 1k

How are you keeping 1P with less than 50,000 EQM?

I was curious too if you were confident that they were going to just bump you up to 1P being 200 miles short.
I'm still flying through Dec.

One more trip to go (in Dec), ending up at about 54K EQM's (about 43K BIS) for 1P lite at about 3.9 cents per EQM, including the VISA promo and 2x EQM promo fees. Couldn't have done it without the great folks at FT.
Likely, as a leisure traveler, things will be quiet until next March when the 3x promo cranks up. Here's to spending a couple weekends in Osaka
Depending on which pool you're parked at, enjoy the bottomless margaritas and the "view"....
