Last week I flew from New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK)<\/a> to Copenhagen Airport (CPH) on Delta Air Lines<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The journey wasn’t a mileage run per se \u2014 I used to be assembly my cousin and a good friend for a brief journey \u2014 however I wanted the Medallion Qualification Dollars to maintain my Diamond Medallion standing<\/a>. After flying this journey and factoring in my different year-end journey, I might be at simply greater than 15,200 MQDs for the yr.<\/p>\n

However, a miscalculation in Delta’s system shorted me 273 MQDs. If the error had gone unnoticed, it will have price me my standing for 2023.<\/p>\n

See, after I landed again in New York, Delta credited my account 593 MQDs though my ticket price about $954. I wasn’t anticipating to earn MQDs on all of that spending \u2014 MQDs are solely earned on the ticket’s base fare and carrier-imposed surcharges, generally dubbed “YR” \u2014 however I knew one thing was off.<\/p>\n
