IP: Delta PMs are given a real, honest-to-god, absolute CRC membership. Same as anybody who pays for it. If Delta, NW & CO negotiate a lounge access agreement, all members should be included. Including those whom Delta has gifted with a membership.
Otherwise, as GG suggests, Delta will have hell to pay.
Of course if the DOJ and DOT do the manly thing and decide to deny the oligopoly after all, this is moot. With the money we're saving on NW tickets, we will be happy to spend a little on WorldClub access.

Lex and GG, THANKS for that long awaited report!! It is very tempting; as you know we talked about it 3 weeks ago. One question I have, does anyone have sense about the earning of Elite miles on which carrier if the DL/NW/CO agreement goes thru? In other words, if I fly NW, would that count for elite miles on DL? Doesn't it on NW and CO now? I know it did when the HP/NW/CO pact was strong.
