Just something to mull over
This year I'm enjoying my flights on Delta, and paying for them with my VDB credits earned last year. As long as I keep my flights under .06cpm I should hit FO this year and it will have cost me less than $100 I paid for the first flight. With any luck, a few more VDB's will come my way, and I'll hit GM.

That said, this might be a good time to ask where to look for a comparison of the different programs. Benefits and costs, etc.
