Delta extending MQM and bonus miles to selected Medallion members

by on Jul.20, 2009, under Airlines

Delta has been sending emails to a selected few Medallion members to extend their Double MQM and bonus miles offer to September 7, 2009.  Similar to the first Double/Triple MQM offer (see previous post), there’s a catch! You will need to book and fly on higher (more expensive) class fares. Classes B and M on economy are almost full fare tickets.

In addition, you will get 50% more bonus miles which is great if you’re only a Silver Medallion. This offer is also available on Northwest.

Here’s the link to register even though you might qualify… but do give it a try.  There’s a fine print at the bottom of the page that reads:  “Only members who receive this communication directly from Delta Air Lines are eligible to participate in this offer.”

Below is a chart showing the potential MQM & Bonus Miles.

Delta offering 10,000 MQM for 2010

by on Jul.08, 2009, under Airlines, Travel Partners

I was extremely shocked to see the attached email from Delta on Monday morning, offering me 10,000 MQM (Medallion Qualifying Miles) toward my 2010 status.

I checked my online account statement and noticed it was there!

This is right after the Triple/Double MQM offer ended — which wasn’t really an offer (see previous post). I am guessing Delta is feeling guilty that it actually did not offer or gave anyone real MQM with their previous offer, and this is a way to proactively quiet the future complaints.

After speaking with a few of my associates, I found out this MQM offer was only given to a selected few and not everyone. Some folks only got 5,000 MQM while others got as much as 15,000. I guess it’s dependent on how much you have flown in 2009 — I racked up about 30,000 miles on Delta in 2009.

It is a good consolation prize for the bad MQM offer Delta had from March to June 2009. Kudos to them on this one.
