/and in case any DL folks are lurking, here is why I left you:

1. Massive inflation in WBC TATL award cost.
2. Poor customer service: Phone, TTU, etc.
There is scant evidence that DL has any interest in keeping former NW customers. As the largest airline in the world with the Best In Class frequent flyer program, they are too big to fail (like GM, AIG, etc.)

Here is a something that I received from United in early November:

Thank you for contacting us.

We invite you to submit a status match request beginning February 2, 2010. We are no longer accepting requests for the remainder of 2009 as we are in the process of fulfilling our 2010 elite card distribution.

I appreciate your taking the time to contact me.
