Concur, except the 100% EQm does make a difference with NW to DL and that way actually DL has become my back up to NW and CO my thir choice unless I can get a decent fare and 100% EQM's on CO then naturally I'd take them over DL. I can't complian about CRC acess as I usually only need them when flying DL anyway with a couple of exceptions that it would have been nice...MSY, PHX come immediately to mind...probaly a couple of others.
