You could do it if you live on east coast and fly back and forth to Australia 6.5 times which will take a min of 6.5 days. So hopefully you have 3 free weekends and $15k to drop on flights. Good luck in this project!

Your math is wrong @88, it's about 48hrs round trip including layover - for ~20k miles. Multiply by 6 and you get about 12 days, add a round trip to LA and make it 12.5-13.

My bad OP - hopefully you are free all the weekends left in the year but good news! Still should only be around $15-16k with LA trip. Averages about $2,500 round trip if you sit in coach. Maybe I'll see you one one or all of my flights.

Delta diamond is 140k, isn't it?

@firm Are you flying there for work? Jealous!

@E1 it's 125k miles or 140 segments. @D4 I am! Global client, it's cool I am enjoying it.

😂😂😂 some great replies in this thread

I wish Delta would give an actual medallion made of the element that matches membership level, with options for engraving and chain size.

@firm Can you bring me back some Tim Tams next time? 🙏🏻

Amazing troll post @OP... unless...

@firm: The dark chocolate ones? 😍
