MQMs are also earned when your name and SkyMiles number are on your Delta ticket and you fly with Delta. They're calculated based on distance flown and flight class purchased.
 
Add the MQMs you earn from flight activity to the MQMs you earn from Status Boost to see if you may qualify for a higher level of Status.
 
&ast;MQMs are used to determine Medallion Status and are different from the miles you earn towards flights.
