It is not commonplace for it to be the "next day or two" now.

Longest delay ever for maintenance was 90 minutes...I just don't know how that could be true.

Is your (int) stand for international? Delta used to have Omaha steaks in domestic coach.

For me. K+ fares immediately upgradeable (but L and later UT not upgradeable at all). More food service...even though on more than one occasion, I got chef salads on back to back flights. North American upgrade certificates. No CRJ service IND-ATL and half mainline service to CVG. More domestic widebodies including B/E seats to SAN, LAX, PDX, and SEA.
