My thoughts exactly

Minimum spend to get invited is more than most people here make in a year. Good luck boss

Honest question: first, I thought the floor was $100k, no? Second, if you can run your expenses through Amex, why would making the cut be that outrageous? Between air hotel and personal, even $250k seems doable.

If it is a business card you will be targeted. Also, they do not aggregate business card spend with personal spend.

What’s delta reserve status?

You get centurion if you spend 250k and above. My parents have those and they fly commercial every day, despite first

like

Op it’s delta diamond that comes with the centurion card. Delta reserve is an Amex co-branded credit card. Also, the initiation fee is so high it negates all benefits and they killed the airline credit.

agree not a bad deal but almost nobody on here will be targeted.

“Just saw rich people. I actually think it’s pretty good to be rich lol”

Just playing OP ;)

yeah isn’t that outside the realm of possibility here for everyone outside our CEOs?

You can probably get some points. Be aware that American tends to have mor delays than Delta so switching won’t help. It’s also a much suckier airline in general. At least 60%of my AA flights are delayed in a year
