My thoughts are that I'll be MVPG and DL Gold for 2019. I matched into DL a few months ago (to Platinum, but only hit the Gold part of the challenge for 2018) and given what has happened with the AS partnerships, I don't see 75K for 2019 at this point. I think I'll be fine with this. I like the DL domestic product for the most part, and can get me most places that AS can't (or even can in a premium cabin at a lower price point at times). If you choose the DL match program, read the timing issues carefully. (I don't like the DL program very much otherwise, but the airline has treated me well in my limited experiences.)
