I got elite status on 2 of the mayors, but getting an upgrade in the past 8 months has not really been the best since every flight is packed. I guess the more comfy alternative would be jumpseating on one of the MIA-ANC flights?
MIA-ANC flights are very rare…maybe one a week. ANC-MIA are daily or twice daily. Choose one of the airlines you already have status on and ask for that one every trip up to and back from ANC. If you’re not already the absolute top level in their FF program you will be soon and upgrades may come more often. You’ll probably be able to hold a base in the lower 48 in about a year and the commute will be easier.
