I use SDC and fee waivers religiously. I also redeem for international F. I also get a mile for every mile I fly, as opposed to miles based on what I spend. All are compelling reasons for me to stay with Alaska, even though Delta is a viable option- most of those options would not be available to me on Delta. I suppose if I was buying domestic F and international J instead of cheap Y I might feel differently.
