One way fares on Delta range from $250-$550, for non-stop flights leaving within an hour of each other. I'm willing to pay a premium to retain status but not at this price difference. So, for now I wait and see when Alaska prices drop.....
They might not. Generally DL’s prices to Mexico ex-SEA have been better than AS’s. I’ve taken advantage because my primary status concern is the status of how much cash is in my wallet these days.
