The choice benefits are no longer much of a draw, and with the no rollover I have stopped flying delta for the year, zero incentive to, I think aa thought this thru by sprinkling in benefits for certain mileage thresholds rather than just for getting to a status level, I have already hit ex plat but would rather fly aa to get to the next threshold and pick up another swu than fly delta anymore this year for …. Plus I find aa points more valuable for redemptions, with the aa year now starting in March I will use delta for most of jan and Feb

but I fly out of New York with lots of options
