AA/UA offer free upgrades from business to first for paid business flyer.
Also AA/UA offer similar to EC for domestic flights.

Again, both AA and UA offer EC equivalent to their elites.
I can't find any reason for flying DL.

Once again the unannounced redemption rates are a key portion. You can have a billion dollars but that doesnt matter if it costs a million for a gallon of milk.

My question is WHY DL?????
