They all fly what I fly so altogether we are 3 Diamond & 4 Platinum members. My wife & kids are also Gold thanks to a couple of India-USA trips we end up taking every year.

I always believed I would be the type of member Delta would be pretty happy to have. I fly exclusively with them, hardly use the lounge, hardly use GUCs & am always flying business/first class so not taking up upgrade space. The same goes for my family & my work colleagues. They get all my business & I take up very little in terms of benefits.

Since the changes were announced, I've made the next 3 bookings on other airlines. Probably the first time I have done this in years. 2 trips are to the US & one to Amsterdam. I'm going to continue to do this till these 'rollbacks' are revealed. After that I'll take a call on what to do next. As much as I have been loyal to Delta for the last 10 odd years, as an international Medallion member, I can't see myself spending $35K on them every year to retain my Diamond status.
