Gold gives you sky priority. It’s basically the minimum status you need to not suck

Gold???? Ain't gonna happen. I never got upgraded as gold, rarely got upgraded as platinum, and as diamond it's about 25% of the time.

Diamond gets to board with first.. But yea if you're Platinum it's like mingling with peasants

Checked in. What's the logic here? Any tips to get upgraded more frequently especially on the red eyes (e.g. Checking in early etc)

Na nothing you can do really. There are just so many ppl with higher status - when flying to and from Atlanta I rarely got upgraded even though I was diamond. Lol

OP even diamonds don’t get upgrades lol

Once you get platinum, book in advance and try to select into C+ manually

Gold doesn’t get you much w Delta. Those days are gone

You have to book early to get cleared early. With platinum I usually only will clear a non-immediate upgrade before the day of on weird flight times e.g. getting a first class upgrade on the Wednesday before a Sunday night flight

Most 💎 / plats are bugged Gold gets sky priority for boarding

Seriously thinking of taking a 6 mo sabbatical and getting away from it all for a while next year. Potentially travel around the world in Q3 / Q4 presuming the pandemic situation has improved.

I know it will set me back from making Partner by at least 1 year but who cares? I feel like it will be a life changing experience (traveling around the world part).
