It usually stands for Silver, but....
Once upon a time, Delta rewarded admin assistants/secretaries with Flying Orchid. An honorary title with some flying benefits, though these people rarely flew.
Along the same lines as Flying Colonel which gave you some benefits including Lifetime Crown Room Club membership. They have since forgotten that part which has been discussed many times. And to be honest, it was another STUPID blunder on Delta's part to provide such a lifetime benefit.
Someday, they will change the air filters on Virginia Avenue.
