Finally something good! Much like UA’s “Elite Choice Rewards” or AA’s new bonus program, you actually get something for flying over 75,000! The major difference is that there’s nothing for those doing less than top tier status travel like AA and UA, but it’s still great. Here’s what you get:
Earn 100,000 MQMs—enjoy 15,000 bonus miles.
Earn 125,000 MQMs—enjoy [...]

We all know about United Starnet blocking, but still, in my experience UA doesn’t block SQ11/12 very much, which is SQ’s flight from LAX to SIN via NRT and back.

Wow, never thought I’d say this. I’m not really a fan of Delta and I’m not really a fan of Northwest, but based on what I’ve seen I’m a big fan of the new DL/NW!
