(The Kona airport has, like, one restaurant. Kona is the only airport on this itinerary without a Delta Sky Club. Remember to choose Main Cabin before proceeding to the Delta check out. Here is a Google Flights links to get you started. I picked a Friday date for our example because, well, it’s a Friday and you have Sunday to recover. There are several dates available during February and March. This may be a fun way to use some Delta travel credits expiring this year (if you have any). That makes the MQM yield about 4.6 cents per MQM (CPMQM).
Delta says it’ll yield 10,960 MQM and $414 MQD.
#MQM NEWS UPGRADE#
So, there’s the chance you can upgrade to Delta One (read: lie-flat seats and better service). The transcontinental flights (JFK-LAX and vice versa) are aboard 767s. But if you have any unused Upgrade Certificates burning a hole in your virtual pocket, this mileage run may present a good redemption opportunity. (I bet the warm weather sounds very nice - especially right about now.)įirst things first: it is a Main Cabin run. If you’re in the New England area and want some 1) MQM and 2) a few hours of tropical air, this Delta mileage run to Kona on Hawaii’s big island might be great for you.
