I get four upgraded boardings per year from my Rapid Rewards Visa. I've never used it yet so unsure how it works. Current question--we purchased travel with the Visa for my wife, can we use the card benefit to upgrade her boarding if I'm not on the flight (the card is in my name)?

That helps, thanks. So for my upcoming flight that shows "EST POINTS" of 990, I should earn 990 TQPs from that (and 1238 RR points), if I understand correctly? @kingsmatt80 wrote: You must be A-List. You get a 25% earning bonus for RR points only. Without A-List you would have earned 744 RR points. But since you are A-List you earn 744 +25% = 930 Rapid Rewards points. Tier Qualifying Points do not get the benefit of A-List or A-List Preferred multipliers. If you earn 744 points then that is it. No status is recognized when calculating TQPs.

Curious how TQPs are calculated on flights. Specific questions: 1. I see in my account info under earned points, past flights where it shows "Flight" with some points to the right, 930 in my example, then if you click the down arrow to open details, it shows "Tier qualifying points 744". What is relationship/formula between 930 and 744 here? 2. If I have upcoming flight, it shows a value for "EST. POINTS" (990 in my flight example). Will all of these be TQPs? Or is there some formula used to determine how many will be TQPs? Would like to estimate upcoming TQP earnings towards A-List. Thanks! -Chris

My favorite sight, Hollee, is when I can just make out an Antoine's Poor Boy sandwich when flying over Harry Hines coming into Love Field. Mmmmm. Sure miss those po' boys!
