Now that I've completed a few legs with Delta, I would like to say that Delta is pretty good. The gate attendants are pretty attentive to me and my party as a platinum. The flight attendants are also very competent. We had a dog medical emergency on a flight coming into ATL and the girl ran down the isle as we were landing and helped a dog with something lodged in its throat. The game server which allowed the passengers all to play poker together was pretty cool and lots of fun, though it was broken on the ATL-PIT segment later....
Now I have to figure out how to keep status. I have the Delta Gold Amex, but it looks like maybe I need to get the platinum. I have no problem with 25K spend I can do that in a heartbeat, I can probably do 250K spend lol. But I will probably lack enough segments or miles I'm not exactly sure how Delta's works yet.
I do like to complain, but I am fair and I can say Delta is pretty damn good..

I just like to report my experiences and I feel that I am honest and forthright and I admit when I was wrong...Delta did give my step mom a $25 credit for something that was not right to use for future flights so I can see they do care and make efforts to make things right. United also did give me $40 food voucher for a cancelled flight that I used to take my son to Ellway's at DIA lol...But I can see Delta is a notch above most carriers and I'm pretty observant.
