If you track my posts over the past 8 months, you'll see I've gone from pretty supportive of the merger to pretty not happy with the new situation. There are a pile of factors that led to that change, although the turning point was around June for me.

Note I don't *WANT* to switch - I'd far prefer DL upped their game. But if the answer really is take-it-or-leave-it, it might just have to be leave-it.

For someone who flies at Gold level, I don't know what else you could want. DL gives Golds a very generous percentage of bonus miles, free bags, plus unlimited space available upgrades. That is as good or better than any other USA airline. What do you really expect for 50K MQMs per year?
