What should an AA refugee know about switching to DL?
I'm looking at switching my flying over to DL after the dumpster fire that the AA/US merger has become of late. With lifetime status already secured, there's little reason to endure the mess. My plan is to wait until after 7/1 to comp over.
My travel profile is mostly domestic, up and down the east coast. I'm (newly) based in RDU so the availability of non-stop flights to more than just hubs is appealing to me. I fly probably 180-200 segments/yr, spend is in the $25-30k/yr range. Company will pay for C+ and club membership.
Assuming I'm comped over to Plat, what pitfalls/tips/tricks do y'all think will be most handy?
