Weekly travel to Seattle from LA. I live closer to BUR. Diamond on DL. Do I fly BUR SEA direct on Alaska, or deal with LAX SEA direct on DL? Weekly for at least two months.

Do a match to Alaska. I did it and was given their top status and get 1st class upgrades every flight with them

I'd stay with DL and LAX may not be that bad for two months. SNA could be another option

OP - BUR. Call Alaska and see what they’ll do for you. Decision made. Enjoy the extra sleep and enjoy the fact you made a good decision. 👍🏻

I do the same travel! BUR-SEA on Alaska is super convenient

Alaska!! Great benefits, great redemption, and upgrades are generally better.

Plus since you're Delta they'll probably match you to Gold 75k.

Better solution: move to the west side and fly DL out of LAX.
