Does a Delta life time silver member get their MQM transferred to next year even with no flying or Amex purchase ?
@andy ancar – No. “Gifted” lifetime status will NOT get your MQMs saved. You must EARN at least $3,000 in MQD spend or get the Amex $25,000 spend waver on the Platinum or Reserve Delta cards.
