Which could be something ridiculous like 4x JFK-BOS r/t's. On top of that, why are we only seeing DL give these status challenges? Are they seeing that many medallions leaving that they need to get more?
So here's my question - come next year after MQD's kick-in and everyone will have either had to hit the spend or qualify for the AMEX waiver, will DL still be just giving status away like this?
They'll be doing it even more than they are now.
Don't you know, this is how they "thin the herd" and provide "a more exclusive medallion experience."
LOL
