10k MQMs and how many EQDs? It’d be a shame to miss Diamond by so little...

Sounds like they got you - elite in a fortress hub. Hard to justify that kind of price differential to a client just for your status, so yeah I’d try to match to JetBlue but keep checking Delta pricing each week.

JetBlue is a great airline. Even without status you get treated well, like free wifi and extra legroom. If your long term project is located near one of its hubs, such as BOS or JFK, then go with them.

Yeah delta is a bunch of extortionists in ATL. They know it too.

For real, do you have a delta credit card? You can get the last 10k as a sign-up bonus

I have the platinum reserve... Can get diamond pretty easily but with very few roll overs. Already cleared the spend hurdle (kids).
