That flight activity credit of up to 15k miles is pretty sweet. If only I knew people without a SkyMiles acct… But I’ll try to get my newbie friends to sign up for this.
@MileValue – yeah, hey, you know it is never to young to start flying right? – Rene
Don’t mean to put a damper on this bonus offer, but the last time I found a 25000 mile flight was, oh, about 8 years ago. When is delta EVER going to fix that ghastly award calendar?
@Chris – I always find low level seats. Please read the post in the Essentials tab! (but yes the award calendar is hopeless broken that I agree 100% with)
