Yikes! The economy must be in really poor shape for 2 DEQMs, plus the extended Australia DEQM, plus the various 90-day status bumps... wow.
Now if only I had the money and the time for a mileage run... sadly, I lack both (much more of the former than the latter).

It says it will post 4-6 weeks after travel. If you travel on Dec 15, could the DEQMs post in Q1 of next year?

Since it is already September 3rd in many parts of the world wouldn't that count for registration purposes or is the registration date depend on where you are in the world?

So apologies if I missed this question already but with the DEQM posting 4-6 weeks after travel if you flew in December say would the EQM count towards next year or post on your 2009 balance?

Impeccible timing!
So close, remember you'll pick up some EQM's with your .bomb purchase if you aren't already over 5K on your UA MP VISA.
Go for it!
That is efficiency!!

Heh. According to my spreadsheets this could put me over 150K EQM for the year. I may need to reroute some of these on AA so I hit 125K on both. I currently only projecting out to 110K on AA.
