Who started the Million Mile threshold?
My recollection is that Delta was first with this, and that United (was) kind of backed into it at first. DL initiated it with some fanfare. UA's criteria was more and benefits were less than DL's at the beginning. It's just my memory, though I'm virtually certain.
