This would be the main negative for Delta. Award availability is terrible at the lowest mileage level. Or as mooper says, award availability is great if you are platinum or higher, use miles for domestic awards and book relatively close-in (a month or two in advance?). Good luck using SkyPesos unless you are extremely persistent.
