Has your position changed? UA is definitely weak in SEA, but I love UA's international network way more than DL. It seems like DL's pre-COVID strategy was to rely more on its JV partners. That doesn't do me much good if I want to utilize my DL status. Obviously, the GUC devaluation only made things worse.
