Definitely a great benefit improvement for DMs, with the GMUs being able to be used for any fare class.

However, PMs are getting the short end of the stick. The RMUs are quite a disappointment though, as they're pretty much just trump cards, for routes that are eligible for complimentary Medallion upgrades. And they can't get any form of a GMU in exchange.

At a lowly non-status member, I'm just happy DL didn't move to FBATR!!!

And to the lurkers at DL, I do purchase international business class tickets from time to time, sometimes on DL. However, DL's SkyMiles program isn't strong enough for me to spend all my money just on DL. I used to have status on NW for the a very long time and 2 years on DL.
