as a member of both Delta and NW programs I am eagerly watching the news of the merger to see how they mesh the two programs. I have about 600,000 combined miles banked and have decided to start using them on upgrades.
Welcome to FT and the Northwest forum. We look forward to your contributions, which should be good based upon the amount of flying you seem to do.^

I'm new to the world of frequent travel (just joined the consulting world) but should hopefully pick it up soon. I should have NW PE and Marriot PE by the end of the year.
Welcome to you, also. It's great to have you here.

Or, waking up at 3 AM and logging on because you can't sleep!

From blowing off studying you will one day graduate to checking out FT at work when you should be doing what they pay you to do.
