The Road Warrior Training fee is simply for that — the Road Warrior Training. Delta Air Lines sets that fee.
The registration fee is to cover the cost of items such as badges, printed materials, the www.atldo.com Internet web site, etc. which still need to be used for participants of the event, even if they only attend Road Warrior Training.

What is in the DL Museum Store? Would've liked to go there if I had the free time when in ATL.

For a $5 entry fee it is a heck of a deal but once I factor in the $89 for the hotel and the $3,837.69 r/t Biz Elite ticket it becomes a bit pricey.

I would guess that Delta's cost per person for the RWT drops sharply as the number of participants goes up. If they can get a full group, as opposed to a half group, it will be a much better deal for them.
As such, SkyVillager's idea that people be allowed to sign up for RWT only, and not have to pay the registration fee for the rest of the Do, might well be in Delta's best interest.

I am waiting for the RWT III course, which Delta will be offering in cooperation with the U.S. Army Chaplain School at Fort Jackson.
In this course, you are taught what to do in case the plane has to ditch over the North Alantic any time between Oct 1 and March 21.
Basically, you learn how to give Last Rites and/or offer Memorial prayers in several major religions in the 23.8 seconds before you freeze to death.

Delta Users Conference
What we are doing is developing the Delta Users Conference.
I could be wrong about this: I think it's $300 for RWT as a group rate and $400 for individuals.
Written from the Park, Sleep, and Fly hotel - outbound on DL Reward Tix to go camping in a National Forest in Washington.
