Thanks!

Delta upgrade order:

Delta Diamond Medallion w/Delta Reserve AmEx on Full Y
Delta Diamond Medallion on Full Y
Delta Platinum Medallion on Full Y with Delta Reserve AmEx
Delta Platinum Medallion on Full Y
Delta Gold Medallion on Full Y with Delta Reserve AmEx
Delta Gold Medallion on Full Y
Delta Silver Medallion on Full Y with Delta Reserve AmEx
Delta Silver Medallion on Full Y
Delta Diamond Medallion on B, M, H, Q, K, L, U, T (in that order)
Delta Platinum Medallion on B, M, H, Q, K, L, U, T (in that order)
Delta Gold Medallion on B, M, H, Q, K, L, U, T (in that order)
Delta Silver Medallion on B, M, H, Q, K, L, U, T (in that order)
Delta Platinum Medallion on Y, B, M, H, Q, K using a companion upgrade to upgrade non-elite
Delta Gold Medallion on Y, B, M, H, Q, K using a companion upgrade to upgrade non-elite
Delta Silver Medallion on Y, B, M, H, Q, K using a companion upgrade to upgrade non-elite
Looks right, except for "Delta Diamond Medallion on Y, B, M, H, Q, K using a companion upgrade to upgrade non-elite". Should go just above the appropriate PM line.

Also, as far as I'm aware, this is the ordering that applies (primarily) when going for gate upgrades. If I (as an FO) am already upgraded and confirmed, and then a DM with 3 bajillion MQM and Reserve Titanium Diamond Really Shiny Card SDCs to my flight, they won't bump me.

If you're upgrading at your window, the medallions at that window will be ordered according to that list as well.
