Speaking of miles, points, since Delta extended status again and rolling over all of our elite qualifying miles again....

Posted by ty97 Aug 4 '21, 12:53

I've basically already qualified for my 2023 Platinum status (75K elite miles + credit card waiver) since I, as of right now, have over 120K elite qualifying miles (with more to come this year). And they will ALL roll over.

Which suggests to me that perhaps in 2022 I should focus on actually...using some of my points/miles?

Delta 651,000 miles
United 260,000 miles
American 1,381,000 miles
403,000 UR points

*grimacing*

- I mean, a round the world ticket might only be 300-400k miles for first class. He could take like 3 or 4 of those :) -- nm - oblique Aug 4, 13:33
I somehow look like I'm going to qualify for Titanium Marriott again (75 nights) due to the bonuses, rollover, etc. they provided -- nm - MDH Aug 4, 13:02 2
- I recently discovered that they had this level and I just laughed. -- nm - ty97 Aug 4, 13:03 1

jeebuz man. I think I've earned about 75k points so far this year (so maybe 150k annually). I presume that's years of earning? - oblique Aug 4, 12:56 4
- Yeah, I haven't redeemed anything in.....who knows. It's numerous years -- nm - ty97 Aug 4, 12:57 3
  - Those are the kind of points I read about on Reddit of people doing crazy luxury vacations -- nm - oblique Aug 4, 13:03 2
    - I use some of mine on occasion, but yeah, I kinda would rather use them for something I could never otherwise do - ty97 Aug 4, 13:08 1
      - I mean, just minimally, the 400k UR points could get you 10 nights on an all inclusive private island via Hyatt (40k points per night) - oblique Aug 4, 13:16
See what I mean? -- nm - Spawn Aug 4, 12:54 2
- Basically never? -- nm - ty97 Aug 4, 12:54 1
