Well, 2012 has come and gone and it's only the end of November! With the flights from the MegaDO international portion posted, I am officially an United Premier 1K again for 2013! Glad I done for the year as airfares are high at the end of the year plus bad weather all abound (ie. Hurricanes/Megastorm Sandy and Northeasterns) make it hard to requalify for some people.
Here's a summary of what I accomplished this year on United and American Airlines.

Notes
|
I received an extra 25% bonus redeemable
miles (1298 miles to be exact) for crediting Continental operated flights to
my Continental OnePass account for travel before March 3, 2012 from my Chase
Presidential Platinum Credit Card.
^ Due to an error system error/glitch
in Continental/United SHAREs system, I got some bonus PQMs/PQSs/RDMs for
upgraded flights incorrectly coded as paid Domestic First Class earlier this
year for Premier Qualifying Miles, Premier Qualifying Segments, and Redeemable Miles).
* I did credit over 25,000 Status Miles
to Turkish Airlines this year (which could be credited to United to reach Premier 1K
level).
Plus, I have some Flexible PQMs left over from my Chase Continental Presidential
Platinum Credit Card as well
(with no expiration… for now) I also received a bonus of 5,000 miles from customer care for compensation on a service issue this summer. |

Qualifying Miles / Double Elite Qualifying Points / Double Redeemable Miles

these routes: DFW-LAX/SFO or ORD-LAX/SFO and also later ORD-SNA.
There was a systemwide Double Elite

for all flights operated by AA.
