Using Delta Skymiles in UK
Hey,

Delta has lots of ways to use miles other than for flights. Are any of these available to those in the UK?

Help appreciated.

I used a pile of Sky Miles recently to take the wife and I from MAN to CHS via ATL. I've never had any problems using them on DL.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I am looking to spend miles on things other than flights. I noticed they have a Newspaper/Magazine subscription etc. And I remember using miles on hotel before but can't find it now.

Thanks for visiting the SkyMiles Marketplace.

Unfortunately, gift cards and other merchandise are not available to customers residing outside the U.S. But don’t worry. We’ve stocked our international marketplace with hotel stays and car rental redemption options.

I have the US-issued DL Plat Amex, so I would not expect to see this message in my case.
