I fly DL and AA and never UA. I fly out of ATL primarily international except for MR's domestically. I rarely stay over a Saturday night. I have a DL AX that I regularly manage triple points on. Ok, I'll be honest I have 5 DL AX cards and I rotate based on the one with the triple on it. I deposit all to the same SM#. I can see your point about the travel earning miles but wouldn't I still be earning miles that would need to be used. Yes I have a Chairman and it earns TYP but I just have not been able to break the habit of playing the DL AX Triple game. Oh, I have to spend 25k on each to get 10k MQM's on each every year. Maybe that is the killer, I need that spending to ensure forever Platinum.
