Delta 360 - Consolidated Thread
A year ago today, I was invited to the Delta 360 club. I hit the same numbers from my home airport in 2017. Just curious if anyone has received their invitations. Safe travels to all in 2018!

I'm not that high up the food chain, but a family member is. He was called by Delta last week and informed he was being dropped from Delta 360 despite flying even more in 2017 than in 2016. He asked for a reevaluation twice and was told they changed the requirements and he no longer met them. He was over 550K MQM and right around $60K MQD. If that doesn't do it, I don't know what does.

I haven't been called yet, so I guess that's a good thing. Laar year I flew 350,000 miles out of VPS and had a MQD that exceeded $75,000. I'll keep everyone informed. |
What benfits do you receive from 360?

Lotta humble bragging going on here. :D

Were those earned MQM in that year? If so, his $ per mile is way too low. Raw spend is king but $/mile is critical as well. $60K is definitely on the low end of the spectrum (although it depends on the city - 60K in Atlanta won't even be close whereas 60K in an outstation or place with lot of competition may be enough).
I know DL is trying to make the top tiers more exclusive and I respect it, but seems odd to just drop someone who flew more the following year. Though realistically, Delta 360 doesn't mean much more than Diamond does except for the gift. The Tiffany glasses and bottle of scotch was lovely. |
Brag / No Brag - Humble / Not Humble - the numbers are required to better understand the threshhold at which this status level is earned
2017 - 398,000 MQM's, 118 MQS's, 95,500 MQD's, - No invitation yet. Had it for several years at levels below this, but one really light travel year and I lost it. Curious to see if you ever get it back after losing it. None of my FF mates have ever got it back again despite serious travel way in excess of my 2017 numbers |
ATL-based, $95k MQDs, 300K MQMs (265K BIS) and nothing for me

I think this is part of a reasonable evaluation of the program. That is to say, what do all these flyers do if we stop offering these benefits? If everyone who had or would've had 360 continues to fly DL without it, then what good is it for Delta paying for that overhead? They know you're going to give them the money anyway. I'm guessing they are making 360 smaller and providing more indicators to Diamond line agents and providing them more leeway with certain passengers: all as a cost savings measure.

I didn't know they actually called you when you lose your 360 status. I haven't heard anything, nor have I received another package from Delta. It was cool while it lasted :) |
