I've certainly made more than a million, well two actually, but now languishing in the 100ks ... doesn't a mil. get a ride on the spaceship, or is it 2 mil.?

1 mill actual miles flown get's you on the list.

As with others, over 1 mill in total, around 150k right now.

150K at moment, was saving for the UC return NZ, but falling behind 'cause using an opposition airline at present - fed up with the cutbacks on VS !

I dont think I'll ever get to a million when there are UC flights to be had. I think the most I have ever had in my account at any one time would have been about 280'000.

Thanks,
Sarah

nope.

Will never reach that in my life-time.
Too many places don't take amex[:0], and we only fly VA about every two years. But they are mounting.

On 400+ plus right now, with wife at 100+. Both had 250+ on United, but have burnt those doing SFO-LHR in F.

Dont think I've ever reached 500 in the bank on any program.

Yes, more than in million at the moment and it's nearly impossible to use them. We have 3 children and there are almost never 5 PE or UC seats available so we cannot use them.

Any ideas? Tried contacting customer services etc but no one is interested in trying to make this work.

I have recently starting using BA for a number of reasons but reward availability is certainly one of them.
