Hi folks - I'm DL platinum but with all the changes to the program have no more incentive to re-qualify. I'm based in SNA(Orange County, CA) typically qualify for elite status on miles rather than segments and fly mainly to the South East (Fl, GA, TN etc) North East (NY, PA, DE) Mid West (Chicago mainly) and West (TX, AZ, NV, NM etc) and very little in CA. Anyone know which airline would be best for me to try next year? I've already approached AA & NW for a comp but not sure which program is better for upgrades etc. (really the only benefit that matters to me) </font>
I was based in OC and originally flew AA a lot from there. I was very happy as an AA elite out of SNA. Upgrades (even as Gold) we're usually availalbe. However, the AA upgrades are expensive, which is why I switched to DL. However (as it sounds you are aware) DL will be charging the same price as AA in the future.
