But at least half of that are routes that aren't great on Delta (to BOS, BWI/DCA).

Do I have a shot at a status match on CO anymore? I don't think my travel is consolidated enough to meet a challenge.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks

I was a Delta GOLD through 2011 and wanted to check if I could get to CO GOLD for a status match. I sent the fax last week and got a reply 2 days back. With the United merger, it seems like all the matches they do are United type (with a 90 day challenge to meet GOLD for a year). I was kinda bummed but I just have to see how it goes with getting 17.5K miles in the next 3 months.
