But, why is Delta's MM program sooo much weaker than United's?

1MM on United gets you lifetime GOLD + status for a companion.
2MM gets you lifetime platinum, 3MM = lifetime 1K, and 4MM = "global status" (whatever that means).

Delta is WEAK in this department.
Review the "what counts for MM status" thread... DL counts booking-class bonuses and AmEx points toward MM status. No wonder it's watered down!

Easy come, easy to dismiss.
