If you haven't already, take a look at the Delta forum where there are numerous discussions going on about the recently announced changes to the SkyMiles program. I won't link the discussions directly in this post.
Summary:
* 100% EQM for LUT fares
* 75k Plat threshold
* NW/CO standard EUA windows
I wonder if we'll see 100% EQM for Delta LUTs again on NW? That would be, what, the 3rd flip flop on this in 6 months?
I'm also wondering whether the alignment of the CO/NW/DL elite tiers means that we'll be seeing EUAs on DL soon, and DL elites EUAing on our flights.
Very interesting...
