Delta should just man up and say no more credit card waivers for diamond.

If i spent 250,000 on my credit card per year - i would outright buy first class every week

A damn delta credit card shouldn’t earn your status for you. Makes it difficult for us with the non delta AmEx (non- delta platinum and centurion have better benefits). Time to thin the herd

I'm personally thrilled about this change! More spots for the true frequent fliers in first class, not just those that spent a measly 25k...
