Im amused that when we talk about how much we hate the MQD rollover some of you start throwing shareholder/earnings into the conversation. I dont think ANYONE said the AMEX waiver wasnt profitable, some of us just say we despise it and want it gone. Do you understand that hating the AMEX rollover because it dilutes the Elite levels has absolutely nothing personally to do with the dollar of Delta's stock price? Because I am having a hard time grasping why thats so difficult to understand.

Customers care about the experience. I dont think any of us were saying Delta's precious AMEX waiver isnt part of a large profitable venture/sole selling with AMEX. We ALL KNOW that AMEX's partnership with Delta is all about $$$$. I for one know its wishful thinking and in reality that Waiver isnt, sadly, going anywhere.
