Priority 4: Delta SkyMiles Reserve American Express Card
etc.
I can confirm they are looking at MM by the number of miles at least whole numbers, IE 1MM, 2 MM etc. Dumb luck the last two flights I was on this week, I was #1 on the list with 2 seats open and the open seat was next to me. I started talking to both people on these flights one was a 2 MM and the other leg was a 1MM. Unsure how much detail they are looking at with MM, but assume it is whole numbers versus trying to keep a running tally, but I have no proof of that.
