Just got a UPS Ground envelope from Delta. Largish, white square envelope with the Delta widget in red foil on the front, reading "Recognizing you in more ways" beneath it.

Of course, it's what is INSIDE that counts. A very nice black heavy paper sleeve with a die-cut of the Delta widget in the middle. And inside the sleeve is a red foil paper folder that reads "a very special thank you" at the bottom.

And inside that? A very nice note from Lee Macenczak, noting Delta's appreciation for my loyalty throughout the past year.

But wait, that's not all: Delta is also extending some additional benefits to me effective January 1, 2007:
- New, exclusive VIP phone number (and NO, it's NOT the same on that's on the SkyMiles PM card)
...
(other goodies)

"These complimentary, additional benefits are provided to s small, select group of invited Medallion members, so please have your SkyMiles number and PIN on hand when you call.

Also, Delta enclosed a gift card offered by their partner, American Epxress, and some certificates from Hertz and SkyMiles Dining.

All in all, I thought this was a great gesture on Delta's part! Definitely a very nice, unexpected but VERY appreciated holiday gift!^
