This one too.
Does this include the bartender who is trying to turn the place into a hip, luxury bar?

LOL (if I weren't laughing, I'd be crying)

Thanks
Per the fine print, it's supposed to be right away at the time of purchase.

Oh my god.... please stop saying something negative about every single story about Delta. It's so boring/predictable/sad... Please, stop. None of us want to hear you find the "bad side" of literally everything.

Great promo, Delta. Keep it up!

Doesn't help me though. I am already a SkyClub member and would have been interested in the extra MQMs, but this offer only works if you pay $$$ for the membership. I use miles every year.

The ignore function can be your friend.

Interesting comment, BTW, from someone who whines about his UG percentage in his signature line.

Programs: Now just a lowly DL PM/1MM. This industry needs some competition. It's just not enjoyable anymore.

Well, at least I know that I am not (yet) on your ignore list.

Ignored...

And it isn't a complaint. My upgrade percentage is a statement of fact. Just mentioned the "worst percentage ever" comment to see if I am really just that unlucky... I am definitely NOT complaining to Delta about the fact that I don't get upgraded.

There is a slight catch to this promo. I've discovered that the 1500 MQMs are JUST MQMs and not Skymiles. So if you wanted to earn a few quick miles, this promo doesn't help.

Is this offer good if you use 40K skypesos to extend your membership also or does it have to be extended with a credit card?

That's the question that I have too... I'm not going to get back to DM, but I can get to PM with these 1500 MQM. I'd gladly pay for the SkyClub using SM, since they're otherwise less than useful...

I just tried to do this, but when you enter the code, the only options presented are cash payment...

I was hoping you could use miles for this It would only end up costing you 38,500 in the end seeing you get 1,500 of them back (as MQMs yet).

Keep in mind if you get to PM you get the option of a gift - of which you can take 20k SM.
