Based out of DTW, I have over 5 MM program miles when NW merged with Delta and over 1 MM on United. I was charter Diamond Elite with Delta but didn't see any significant lifetime benefits like at AA. After I received LT Gold on AA this year, I tried the AA service to Asia. I thought the service was better on AA than Delta Airlines and because of that, plan to fly more with AA in the future.
