Status Update

Through an unexpected addition of MQMs, I will be qualifying for PM tomorrow. I am flying out again Thursday morning and had not yet been upgraded - is there anyone my status might update overnight and put me a little higher in the oder? Thanks!

The miles need to be posted first and then your status is upgraded. Once that happens, I wpuld call the elite line and have them make sure your current reservation shows your new status. Once it does, your upgrade depending on the list would happen at the gate.


Congrats

Your Wed flt very well might not even post until after your Thur flt, much less having DL's IT system record your PM status. I can think of one outside possibility....

You might try to email Kevin Pinto after your Wed flt and see if there is something he can do.....



But even he may not be able to help you with this.

With all due respect to the OP's desire to reap the benefits of the new status, let's save Kevin's time and energy for the larger issues.

Kevin is a great resource, but giving his email out like candy and getting in contact with him every time 6 miles do not post, for example, is just not a good use of his time.

Thanks for the quick responses. I definitely would not contact Kevin about this - it was just something I was curious about in case I do not get upgraded at the gate. Thanks again!

I would, as MR_MAMA stated, call SMS after your Wednesday travel is complete and see what they can do. Remember, if you are not happy with the first response, try, try again. Good luck and congrats! ^

It's refreshing to see considerate people out there - not wanting to bother a contact over a relatively small issue. I like it.^

Couldn't agree more. Thank you.

It would be better to drop Delta a note about the high standard that Mr. Pinto embodies and other DL employees should strive for.

Amen. Kevin is my contact of last resort on important issues when no one else is willing to help me at Delta.
