While I doubt the death is upon us, the hits are getting much closer. As usual, the *A is way ahead of ST and I pulled out after the merger between CO and UA (GS is quite competitive now - unfortunately only between the passengers) AND the fact that LH M&M was adapted to prevent Y passengers to accrue status miles that count towards Hon Circle.

My hope is that DL is really changing something big time and another legacy poaching for us. That would at least mean one additional year or a head start ...
