Clearly... It's a step in the direction of cheaper fares having less benefits even to medallion travelers. The new language on the web site about "full medallion benefits" for economy fares clearly indicates delta will move to restricted benefits on the cheapest economy fares. Remember back when a T fare was the cheapest.?? Now we have V & X. There was a lot more to that move than a supposed fare class alignment with Sky Team. I call BS.

Friday I'm flying on a U fare and feel like a big spender. Haha. No upgrade yet. 14 of 16 seats are open. As usual theses days.
