Get one of the delta Amex credit cards that have the MQM bonus, otherwise you just need to fly. Book an international business class flight and you’ll rack up the MQM’s easily

Gold no longer has MQM bonuses. The gold card is basically worthless after their update last month.

Get the Delta Reserve card and you can get 20K MQMs pretty quick.

There’s something called “regain my status” where you write an explanation of what happened then fly a certain amount of times to get it back. Or I think you can pay a certain amount if you are short—but think it’s expensive

Okay definitely looking into this. Thank you!

Why do you need status? Just fly first class and you get all the same perks
