I am in the middle of deciding whether to switch from DL to UA's FF program for next year. While I have generally had good experiences with DL, I HATE their partners (read: AF) and need more partners in Asia. Now, I have read and re-read the info on both of them but wanted to make sure I am right on this one.

- MQM/EQM => Both DL and UA enables you to earn these on ALL alliance partner airlines right?

- Double regular miles => DL is 100% for Gold members for ALL alliance flights. UA is 100% for only UA, US, and some LH flights.

Am I right on this? And US mirros UA on this as well right ... except from 2006, Gold will earn only 50%?

Thanks,
A.
