Small pleasures of life have a big impact

those routes are only@upgrade able if you're diamond

I'm diamond but can only get upgraded using a regional certificate on these JFK-LAX/SFO flights. Are you saying I don't need to use a certificate?

if you have diamond + delta reserve card and rhere's room you can get upgraded for free - chances are it won't happen on Sunday Monday Thursday or Friday due to a large # of consultants actually having company pay for business class if they are frequent travelers. I did NYC > LA project for 12 months, everyone buys out the business flat beds so nobody gets upgraded usually unless it's off peak but it's possible I flew out once Wednedsy mid day and got upgrade
