Trying to earn this year for 2022

Just call them

Both of the above answers are good, but can’t you buy miles?

I’d try calling first if you have a higher status. Or if you’re by a major hub, use Google Flights explore for a same day round trip ticket. Just take the cheapest and shortest and spend half the day doing a mileage run.

That should work in time, otherwise there are other options of buying the miles through portals etc. but you’d need the charge to clear by the 31st.

I believe they extended the EQD timeline through February.

I would say max we could do is 1.5 weeks but adding on 3-5 more days seems almost too much? Thoughts?
