Ditto here.

I am comfortably above 3 MM. Would have been a lot closer to 4MM if Leo Mullen hadn't driven me away to Continental for two years when he tried to slit open the goose to get all the golden eggs at once. It has been said that corporations don't have memories. Clearly, the lesson that Leo learned did not stay resident in DL's corporate thinking.

Certainly, annual DM status offers me some flexibility. I had decided that the reduced quality of DL's service did not warrant chasing status. Now I need not worry about that. What remains to be seen is whether DL can improve their product sufficiently to attract my business. My Delta One trip to Europe in a few weeks will be a data point. My last experience with Delta One showed that service had not returned to pre-Covid standards.
