Will miss the CLT hub which IMO is much better than ATL, assigned seats (always in FC) on the DCA Shuttle, and row 1 in the 330s. Not much else.
I will be writing the letter to DL for a platinum challenge as soon as I finish this post.
Back a few years ago, weren't you and Franny PMs? I agree on CLT, however, if it grew to the size of ATL I'm sure if would have similar issues. Which is to say it would still be miles ahead of PHL, IMO. The F service on DL more than marginally better than US, but still not premium. I agree on the US shuttle; easiest consistent upgrade out there.
