The game server which allowed the passengers all to play poker together was pretty cool and lots of fun, though it was broken on the ATL-PIT segment later....
Now I have to figure out how to keep status. I have the Delta Gold Amex, but it looks like maybe I need to get the platinum. I have no problem with 25K spend I can do that in a heartbeat, I can probably do 250K spend lol. But I will probably lack enough segments or miles I'm not exactly sure how Delta's works yet.
I do like to complain, but I am fair and I can say Delta is pretty damn good..
