Oh ohhh... DLDon has some competition for my man-crush affections!

Except for the 213 segments thing. That's just cray-cray.

C'mon Delta, give us a 250K / $30K Double Diamond tier.

Pretty please?

Just think of all the accumulated rollover miles you'd wipe-out in one fell swoop!

I’ll get 3 of 4. Not the 250k.

Works for me, or eliminate the waiver entirely for DDM.

MQD already solved the issue of long-time FFs with large rollover balances who "retire" from keeping their miles or status very long. (or at least limiting them to silver/gold). For folks who can utilize the rollover, Delta is getting paid, so they are happy!

That, but more importantly I also would think it’s to keep people like me from going elsewhere for the rest of the year after we’ve reached DM before Q2 is over.

If there’s no rollover to be gained then I’d just status match and accumulate EXP / 1K on the others since there’s no real incentive to stick around, aside from the upgrades, of course, which don’t usually apply, since those qualifying so early are also likely flying paid F.

Without DL’s rollover program, I’d be much more inclined to try other airlines, whereas now I’m uber-loyal to DL and can’t bring myself to even price other flights.
