Which is why I could care less on the Even More Space Seats. Plus I buy F seats anyway. Boring planes? At least they're clean. I already have Pre-check, and DeltaOne check-in and lounges are pointless. I check in online so no one needs to check me in. All they get you are some decent snacks. JetBlue also never charges me a change fee nor do they charge me to redeposit miles back to my account. They also welcomed me into their Blue, Inc. program with none of the requirements that SkyBonus has. I'm called first onto the plane (sometimes by name). I'm greeted by the FA by name when I board, and they hand me water right away just like Delta does in first. I always have a TV with live broadcast unlike the dinosaur sets you get on Delta half the time. Now that I'm typing this, I'm seriously questioning why I ever gave Delta my business.
Explain to me how you can buy Choice Benefits....Last I looked, GUC/RUC's weren't up for sale on E-bay. Sky Clubs have come a long way. When was the last time you been in one? They're actually very decent, exclusive clubs and by the sound of it, keeping the riff raff out like you is key to the exclusivity of the SC. Another update for you, SC's don't charge you when you bring in a guest. So far your batting .000. To continue, a DM rarely gets charged a change fee, all you have to do is ask. Mileage re-deposits aren't a problem either, I have yet to run into a problem where I needed to cancel at less then 72H. As for the rest, glad to see your expectations of your airline of choice are so low. I read your post twice and talk about a bad case of sour grapes, guess someone didn't call you Mr. DYKWIA when boarding your last Delta flight so you went to Jet Blue where they apparently roll out the red carpet for you on every flight. Good luck with those Even More Space seats and having to spend miles or cash to upgrade to them. Oh, and as your taxiing out at JFK and passing by T4, why don't you wave to me as I am enjoying a cocktail on the terrace of the JFK sky club and I'll be sure to give you the proper return salute!
