delta points monthly news letter

The last Delta Points newsletter for 2014. WoW – What a year of flying it has been. Once the cursed #DOS or Destruction Of Skymiles was announced back in late February I have been on full court press to earn Skymiles and MQMs via flying – starting tomorrow, for 98% of us, only MQMs matter for Delta flyers. December has been, for the most part, yet another #KeepDescending month from  our dearest Delta – look for yourself how low they can go:

➥ Delta YEAR END checklist for 2014 – are you all set?

➥ Delta responds to many of our comments about Skymiles2015

➥ MASSIVE changes to Android Fly Delta APP 3.0!

➥ Is it smart to change to Alaska Air because of #Skymiles2015?

➥ Delta selling MQMs – a MUST avoid! #KeepDescending prices

➥ An updated guide for BlueBird and how to fund the card

➥ 2015 Skymiles earnings on Skyteam & Partner flights is at last OUT!

➥ What I see happening with Delta for 2015 and beyond

➥ Time for Lisa’s latest round of cards before year end.

➥ #KeepDescending –  Delta HOOUs gone as of today CONFIRMED!

➥ The “top 10″ Delta things so many are wrong about (but you know better).

➥ Delta Re-brands seat names & adds some perks but downgrades Gold Medallions.

➥ Cutting through the Delta “OFCMB” seat marketing spin & how to game it!

➥ When do you get your AMEX Buy One Get One Free (BOGOF) certificate

➥ A priest walks on to a Delta CRJ200…. and it hits him in the head!

➥ Should Delta REFUND “buy MQMs” after GM #KeepDescending downgrade?

➥ A Delta Mileage run from Austin to NYC – Day 1 – (with Live updates)

➥ A Delta Mileage run from Austin to NYC – Day 2 – (with Live updates)

➥ Final “Live” Delta Mileage Run post #3 – on our last legs and Franklin’s BBQ

➥ The march to ending 1st class upgrades is underway with Delta

➥ Non-Delta AMEX Business Platinum new Perks make card almost net-FREE now!

➥ “The point of points is I don’t have to pay!” NOT w/ Skymiles2015 – you pay twice!

➥ What are the things Delta just does right & hits the mark.

➥ The REAL value of buying with the “right” card. Extended Warranty!

➥ Wouldn’t it be funny if Alaska Airlines sweeps the Freddies in Atlanta 2015? 🙂

➥ What is the “real” Delta carry-on Size Check max size? Here are the tested numbers!

➥ I’m not saying some Delta jets are old but… (well maybe just a little)!

➥ Is it too late to get 10,000 MQMs from the Delta AMEX Reserve cards this year?

➥ Centurion Lounge San Francisco SFO Airport American Express Delta Points review

➥ Time to play catch-up – What did I miss from my vacation last week?

➥ The “little” things that just bug me with Delta Air Lines they should / could fix!

➥ How I will earn Skymiles next year (since flying Delta  = worst choice)!

➥ Starting 1JAN15 all Delta Pay With Miles PMW tickets earn MQMs & MQSs & MQDs

➥ Some REALLY nice updates to the Skyteam APP version 3.6

➥ Last minute Delta reminders – ya snooze ya lose – time is “just” about up for you!

➥ Whoever came up with OFCMB seats at Delta should get a P-I-N-K slip!

➥ Delta sure has shaken things up with the new “spend Skymiles” math for 2015!

➥ Centurion Lounge LaGuardia LGA Airport American Express Delta Points review

➥ Please don’t “freak out” on January 1st when Delta…

➥ WARNING! Removing your credit card from GoGo may not stop monthly billing!

I at this point do not have a single flight booked for January of 2015 (with Delta that is). I have a few Delta mileage runs booked for April and will keep looking for sub 4CPM flights that can work for me. I plan to book & burn a ton of Skymiles in ’15 as there really is no point or value in spending any money with Delta anymore after tomorrow (other than the AMEX Reserve BOGOF 1st class certs as there is still real value). Lastly, since I know you have been really busy this year, be sure to take a look at January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September,  October, & November’s newsletters to catch up if there are posts you have missed! – René

PS – Rookie Wednesday will return next week!
