The fact that DL's PM's can not upgrade the two lowest fare classes period and M class minimum international makes them the worst of all majors (aside from WN). No other major carrier limits upgrades that much to their top tier (or any other tier for that matter).

Name one other major with an FC cabin that does not allow elites to upgrade cheap fares domestically? NW, nope ... CO, nope ... UA, nope ... AA, nope ... US, nope ... The LUser thing puts them right to the bottom in my book.

uh, NW does not allow international upgrades on any fare less than M across the Pacific and B across the Atlantic, even for Platinum Elite. it's the same I hear over at CO. so all three suck about equally. NW and CO have fabulous upgrade policies for Elites on North American travel, but not for international.
