You will get more upgrades on delta but you will also be connecting to most places.

Was in the same boat as you - ATL to CHI; DL is not worth in CHI. UA or AA will be my choice; in the last 2 years UA has really taken control of CHI from AA, but if you are a hater of UA and a lover of AA then go with AA, else UA works well.

Depends on where you need to go. Delta pretty much only goes to atl, bos, lga, msp slc, cincy and sea out of chicago. I commuted to lga on delta for years and I loved it because I was upgraded almost every time. But for leisure travel, it’s pretty annoying as you have to connect everywhere. International isn’t terrible as you can use Air France to Paris and klm to ams, Korean, latam but in general ua or aa are much better for destination options. If you mostly care about upgrades for business travel and you are going to a delta city it’s fine, but otherwise I’d avoid.

Should switch to United I’d say

I moved from Detroit to Chicago. I still use Delta but I mix it up with American.

I rack up points on both. I alternate. The deciding factor is who has the most convenient times for my schedule.
