Got the email too.... Have 30K DL flying in the first quarter.... :(

Just saw this too, but the links are not working so no details at this time it looks like on what the specifics look like...
It actually appears that they took down the blog post, so maybe it was posted prematurely and needs to be updated. |
|
I'm glad to know the rumor I heard and have been spreading is true. Maybe they will publish them before the special mini RTW fare is still available.

Might be time for me to seriously figure out how to replace my use of Delta with American...
|
Thankfully, I only use DL for short-hauls, so it won't be a huge issue for me. I was hoping for finally getting US as a partner, as part of the AA merger. Looks like that is never going to happen.

What a joke. I have no reason to fly Delta anymore.

I have to use Concur to schedule business travel. Anyone know how to force a higher fare code? |
This might be really bad for people who earn a lot of miles (myself included) flying internationally on DL :(.

Please 75K members will now get 125% RDM bonus instead of 100% Thanks to the person that started the wiki. MVP75K 125% bonus is huge, that's something that Diamonds used to get, and that's a tier at 125K. |
