I’m Delta Diamond and started out as number 1 on the upgrade priority list, but now I’m number 7. Who gets added above the Delta Diamonds?

Delta360, other diamond medallions with more MQMs, diamonds with the Delta Reserve AMEX, upgrade certs

1. Match on Diamond, but higher fare class
2. Match on Diamond + fare class, but holds delta reserve credit card
3. Match on diamond + fare class + reserve credit card, but other has hit the MQD waiver already

EY1 absolutely right. Only thing I’ll add is Regional Upgrade Certificates also trump the regular list; normally you don’t see them as much, but lots of peoples’ are probably expiring soon so they have to cash them out.

D1 is not correct, 360s do not have priority over Diamonds for upgrades and MQMs have no bearing on the upgrade

One more question! Do you need to be at the gate to be upgraded / does that help your chances in any way?

No

Also, you don't appear in the list until you check in. Likely some diamonds don't check in right at the 24 hour mark. Assuming you checked at ~24 hours and since then you've been bumped down?

Red Diamond Dragon Club have highest priority

Hi all,

I just got a job with Delta airlines and I had an accomodation request to work remotely as I am Immunocompromised. I provided all the neccesary documents to back up my request and letters and documents from my Dr. aswell. My request was denied because the team said they wanted me to have face time and one on one interactions with people from other team (which defeats the purpose of my request) because I have to limit those interactions to reduce the risk of infection. What do I do?

Do you pay your credit cards in full every month?

I ask because I’ve let my credit spending get a bit lax since moving and adopting a puppy recently, so I haven’t been paying them off in full every month like I used to (though still well above the minimum payment, and keeping utilization at 30% or under). It got me thinking about how many people adhere to this advice.
