One unrestrited ticket on DL 750 MQM
One unrestrited ticket on US 500 QM

You become a gold medallion after about 67 segments.
100 bonus miles.
Unlimited upgrades on delta.

To get these benefits on US you would have to make CP 120 segments.

You make Platinum at 100 segments on delta. Then you get Plat. SW upgrades.

Delta has a new terminal at Boston, the marine terminal is closer to the city. FC is of little benefit on the shuttle and I typically do not make the cut as a walk up customer (plenty of US3 get upgraded ahead of me). I think the scales have tipped in favour of DL for frequent shuttle customers..time to abandon ship.

No surprise to me. US is losing everything right now; not just customers.

A big (dealbreaking) difference for me and others in DC, is that only US has a DCA-BOS shuttle. DL is CRJ only.

Agreed. I should have limited my comments to the LGA markets only. I was supprised DL didn't re-enter the BOS-DCA market properly. Have found memories of taking DL 727/738 from DCA to BOS, CRJ just wouldn't be the same:( Think this has something to do with redeploing the new 738's elsewhere.

US has better birds, even to NYC, the 319 beats the MD 80/88 but for a sement hound DL, makes more sense. Like the marine terminal at LGA better too..

I was going to make this comment too. I used to do the DCA-LGA shuttle every couple of weeks, DCA-BOS pretty regularly. DL has some nice benefits, but they are very RJ oriented out of DCA. Life's too short to sit on an RJ.
