Well, to be honest, yes. As a silver on continental upgrades are pretty rare, so the few benefits that I do receive--other than the upgrades--I really cherish!

Not to hijack the thread, but do you think that DL has anything else to offer me? I mean Delta seems like a great airline, probably my favourite after Continental, but is there honestly much reason to switch? Especially since i am living in SFO....Continental's partnership with United will really help me out a lot....

Back to the "breezeway", they can make it work, and if they do, it will give me another incentive to switch sometime in the future...or at least fly them when continental doesn't work for me
