I anticipate retaining Atmos Silver with minimal effort. We’ll see about Atmos Gold.
I fly significantly more DL these days than a few years ago (in fact, today, and I hold earned DL status). Having things chip chip chipped (tm) away like RDM earn doesn’t give me warm and fuzzies. I appreciate that the DL/AX integration blows AS/BofA away in some meaningful levels. DL has succeeded in getting my business and AS won’t ever get the level of business I was doing in the 00s and 10s again. Ah well.

As it will stand, I'll have no incentive to pay for AS F for a qualifying boost. Foot shoot self AS?
If you’re buying F maybe AS tries to incentivize you to go revenue based earn? The details are still question marks.
