The 2016 tags are not actually the same as the 2015 ones. The layout and background differ.

Printable drink coupons... How long before someone posts here asking whether he/she can get away with printing multiple copies of each? :rolleyes:

Along with the print your own drink coupons, are there instructions for how to make your own DM tags from Campbell's soup cans? :D

Very Tired of This, DL

Hi All,

I was wondering if DL plans on sending out Medallion credentials with card, baggage tags, certs, etc. this year? There's always this talk about DL going digital, and I'm just wondering whether this is where DL is heading? Or, is DL sending out packets this year?

Anyone have any insight about this?

Oh. It is the old backed up scam. This happened several times a few years ago, but more recently this is not a problem. Today my PM card expires and I have no credential packet--no free drink coupons, no tags.

You would think that DL would ONLY deal with suppliers that are reliable. Come on DL, get with the program. We are, or were, those supporting you through good and bad times.

Put adults in charge of the market and credential packets.

I see it now, but it is that same narrow block font that I don't like (I know, we all have opinions). Maybe next year's tags will replace the worn ones I've been using. ... Scratch that, I just looked at them to compare the differences and mine are exactly the same, the same layout, background and color. I'll have to figure out how to post a picture, but I have last year's and this year's still stuck to the mailers they were sent on.

This is really frustrating... Requalified for DM on 11/2.
No new card yet.
Have an international flight with decent layovers in FCO next week.
I have been turned away in partner lounges before for not having a physical card.
If Delta going to move dates up they have to be better at getting credentials out.

Last years are on the left and this years are on the right. The lighting makes the colors look slightly different, but they are identical and have the same triangle pattern in the field. Maybe DL got a bulk discount.

That sounds like the old 2014 tags (sent out early 2014, valid through 2/28/15).

Perhaps if you qualified for DM in mid/late-2014, they sent you that version but with an expiration of 1/31/16, and then you just didn't get another set in early 2015?

Does this include Gold Medallion credentials?
 
I recently made Gold for the first time last week (via rollover MQMs).

Do Gold Medallions also get a package sent out by mail? What is usually included in such a package?

Did I make Gold too late for the credentials people are posting about that is shipping now (assuming Gold credential are mailed)?

Dunno about the timing, but you should get a GM card, two GM luggage tags, and I think some drink coupons.
