I agree with MIA. You will not get Delta benefits to 2016. Amex is pretty darn good at killing benefits even if you have the Centurion card. The problem is once you drop Centurion card you may never ever get it back. I know many people who have the Centurion card and through it in the drawer to gather dust and use SPG Amex with a + six figure credit line

BTW once you return your Cent you keep the old perks until the exp date of your card. So my exp date was 09/16. Gave the card back in July and still enjoying all the perks of the cent including DL status/SWU.
I feel like I saved $5k/year...(we had 2 cards).
For me being AA exec plat + Admiral Club works just fine. I see zero benefit in the Cent as is. The JP Morgan Palladium looks like the one to get.
