If I'm temporarily flying delta and united, what's the best way to get status? This is for whatever short time I spend with them. (AA - gold, Spg - gold, M - plat elite, hilton - gold)

Delta challenge, platinum with 6 round trip flights

Read the fine print on the delta challenge - most of the fare classes in negotiated rates don't count for the challenge. Team just learned the hard way

@D2 - don't be deceived by that Delta challenge...if you read the fine print those 6 RT flights need to be full-fare/unrestricted economy class tickets

Challenge?

United will match.

like

When you're booking through the AMEX travel portal just make sure to expand the fare details tab. Make sure it isn't a discount fare

Will Delta not match based on any other status? (Aa or spg). I'm not planning on flying with them regularly. Just want to use status if available for few temporary trips.

AA might but you can only do that once every 5 years

^ thanks!

I’m totally empathetic to people that miss offices and traveling. I understand your reasons why, I truly do.

For me personally, after non-stop weekly travel for 4 straight years, not traveling has made me realize how much I enjoy being home. Spending time with family, sleeping in your own bed, consistent exercise schedule, etc.

I for one hope consulting becomes more of a hybrid travel model (i.e. travel 1-2x per month or as needed). Else it won’t be for me.

Anyways, just some thoughts.

Need advice. I was brought onto a program to guide a huge transformational change + to shape the msging. It’s been landing flat with execs + leaders don’t understand the program / think it’s too overwhelming. The challenge is, one of the leads who created the offering + has been on the program from day 1 / has executed this program before won’t give up control, questions anything new created, + continues to revert back to old slides bc they were “approved”. Help! How would you handle to get thru

Would love to get your input on this but how do you guys feel about consulting, especially with a STEM background? I have worked on studies where we make recommendations that anybody with a basic scientific/engineering knowledge will say “yea, no f-ing sh*t. We want to do that too. But it’s impossible to achieve from technical perspective with the money we have. You don’t think we already thought of that?”
