Why don't you describe your flying patterns and what you seek most as elite benefits? Then we can be much more helpful!

I fly about 25000-35000 in the seat miles each year, mostly was-las .. try to do once a year or so was-(some european location) and a bunch of trips was-atl, was-nyc .. i don't necessarily have to ride up front but I'd like to maximize my chances of getting up front when i'm travelling on the lower fares.. it just seems like DLs freq. flyer program is a lot more restrictive than everybody else
