Quote from: Batt BcKee on October 17, 2014, 11:05:56 AMThat reminds me of Frankfurt. We were picked up by a bus on the tarmac and then took a seemingly 10 mile drive to the terminal and before getting on a tram for a two mile ride to the right gate.if you fly lufty 1st you get picked up in a porsche or mercedes and don't have to pile in with the back of the bus'ers.

Flights to Alaska add up quickly. Or is it strictly by calendar year?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

silver? god damnit. so the flights i'm taking right now after earning silver until the end of 2014 mean nothing if i don't earn gold by the end of 2014?

All the mqm's you earn between whenever you qualified for silver 15, and the end of 2014, will get carried over towards qualifying you for silver in 2016. So you when you start flying in 2015, you will already almost be to silver for 16, so it will take you much less time to make gold for 16.
Also when you earn gold sometime in the middle of 2015, it will be effective immediately and last the rest of 2015 and all of 2016
Gold and silver is night and day, btw. You get 100% bonus miles on every flight and priority line in security, and get upgraded much more often. Depending on how close I am in December I may go on a run to get there
actually i think if i mileage boost the crap out of the rest of my flights i could get it. hmmmmm
