No, I actually agree and at any time other than this would have asked to be in on this (e.g. if it was last week now).

For everyone who uses some form of phrase expressing interest, I'll be PM'ing you sometime in the next few days for more info.

Interesting idea. Let me know the code when available.

I'm interested as well. ~ $2K spending annual on personal travel.
|
I will express interest..... $3-$4k personal spend a year.

As I've said before, this thread organizer has picked the worst possible time for this. Doing this now (and you can bet that DL is following this thread) will encourage DL to abuse its FFs more and more, seeing that no matter how much abuse it throws down, it has (gullible and apparantly abuse-loving) customers throwing more and more money at it. IMHO the moderators should delete this thread. Several people here have already stated that their spend would be higher with Delta (or remain exclusively with Delta rather than being spread around) if this discount came to fruition. Surely Delta can see that their program would be driving some of these people away if not for the potential to also pay lower fares. |

I'm in. Here's a short bio:
*Cash spending I'm well over $10k this year but I'm going to end up short $100k so I don't have the ability to negotiate for myself. If we all became a part of a company and enroll in Sky Bonus, with all the spend everyone has, we should be able to get some nice discounts? or am I making this too simple? (please forgive me if I am) |

DL has no interest in giving discounts to people already flying DL.
You should be posting this in the UA/AA/US/WN/B6 forums. Get a bunch of THOSE travelers together and you have something, maybe. You're still inferior to a company, though, as a company can enforce loyalty with policy. You have no mechanism to force program participants to keep travel with DL. Any airline would be interested in establishing a minimum level of committed annual spend with existing customers, particularly if the customers' travel will be managed by a corporate TA, reducing costs to the airline. |
Count me in
Bennos I look forward to the PM this week.
$10-15k annual current Diamond Corp travel is on AAnother carrier :( due to much higher discount level and threshold bonuses paid quarterly with holdbacks. |
I'm certainly interested. Currently a PM and will be requalifying before year-end.

Perhaps this could be negotiated with SkyBonus?

This discussion is about everyone getting together and pooling their annual airfare spend so that the combined annual airfare spend is enough to qualify for an overall corporate discount on Delta Air Lines flights for everyone involved, every time each person books a revenue flight on Delta Air Lines. The SkyBonus small business program is a completely different concept which has nothing to do with this idea and will not aid in procuring a corporate discount from Delta Air Lines. |
I also do not foresee this happening, but on the off-chance it does, of course I'd want to be in. 9-10k spend so far YTD.
