A lot has happened during the past few weeks, hasn’t it? If you need to get caught up, here’s a recap!
First off: I’ll be at the Chicago Seminars next weekend. Will I see you there?
Many people know that Delta CEO Ed Bastian ate crow and announced the airline will make modifications to the horrid SkyMiles 2025 program. Those “modifications” haven’t yet been announced — but here’s what we think they might be.
Readers had some great questions about the changes. A Delta spokesperson took the time to answer them.
René, meanwhile, has a stark warning for anyone flirting with maintaining loyalty to Delta. And do you know about the dysfunctional “family rule” pertaining to Delta American Express cards? Without any notice, Delta axed a sweet spot for business class reward redemptions to Europe. But after all, Delta probably isn’t that into you. (But what do they fear most from us?!)
At least canned wine might be on its way out.
My goodness: gas prices are insane. Here are some credit cards that might help you save a few bucks when you fill your tank.
Both the Ink Cash and Ink Unlimited are back with their massive 90,000 bonus point offers!
Also: Amex made a customer-unfriendly move to its Gold Card.
Have you noticed any Delta phone reps actively avoiding the “Strive for Five” phone survey at the end of your calls?
A guy sold out his wife when the TSA discovered he was carrying a loaded gun.
Amex refreshed its Business Gold Card.
Plus, one of my favorite Amex cards finally has a publicly published and available welcome offer!
One of the only major airports in the U.S. without a lounge is finally getting one!
A Taylor Swift drinking game might’ve gotten a little out of hand at a Buffalo airport.
As always, thank you for reading, sharing, and commenting on the blog!
