  • Loss of 70lb bagage limit on International flights
  • The new imfamous 72 hour rule for award tickets

There probably are others that didn't effect me directly, so they passed right over my head. Can't think of any positive changes off the top of my head, probably were some minor things...
The main positive was that Delta finally published a comprehensive award mileage redemption chart. Actaully, this is not really a "perk" as its something that should be standard and should have been available years ago...so I guess it was more of a "fix"
