If you've been satisfied with DL up until now, they might be a good option. As another poster mentioned, they give good coverage of Europe out of JFK, and the soon-to-be merged DL/NW will have good service to Asia. If you got Gold on two airlines last year, you should be able to make Platinum Medallion by consolidating onto one carrier. This will help to maximize your miles and might get you closer to the front of the line for upgrades.
