I am still holding out for better Tumi options... Not really a fan of the hard case....

Really, the 777 BE cabin is also awfully nice. IMO the tradeoff is that the 747 seats are angled toward the window, but are harder to get out of when in the flat bed position--you need to get your legs around the angled wall and this seems harder than a similar move from the 777 fully flat seats.

I'm holding off too. Any idea if our MM selection expires?

Me too. When do I need to worry?

Was wondering the same... what to pick and if it expires at some point while I'm waiting for new things to be added.

....as luck would have it, my seat 80K this morning on NRT-LAX had limited recline due to a issue with the seat. The seat back moved back a few inches but that was it. Of course BE was full and no other seats were available.

Also, no email or correspondence from Delta regarding my hitting a million miles. My profile does show 1M though. Without flyertalk I would have never been able to navigate to the 1mm gift page as this milestone has gone unnoticed by Delta.

How unfortunate! Was BE completely sold out? If not, I am surprised the FA did not offer to swap you with an upgraded nonrev.

Seems like our choice never expires?

Brand new million miller

As of this morning after flying the 6:47 am departure from Lax to JFK I became a brand new member of the 1 million mile club. Any thoughts on how I should celebrate? Any of you guys flying from JFK to LAX on 417 tomorrow 9/11? If so drinks on me at the JFK sky club.

Congrats. I just hit 1 MM this past weekend (flew FNT-MSP-DTW-LAX-DTW-MSP-FNT). It took a couple days for my account to show the 1M logo and get the welcome email for DL. Now trying to decide which suitcase to get. Seems everyone recommends the TUMI's.

I have been disappointed with the Hartmann case I received for 2MM.

It's showing considerable wear, sooner than I expected it should.

And... congrats.^

I'm sure some skymiles shopping place merchant will be happy to sell you a replacement at full price.
