Using my AMEX card combined with regular travel miles, my husband and I have traveled from the east coast to Jackson Hole, WY twice in the past 2 years, one time flying first class. I also flew "free" one time...so that's 5 tickets in the past 2 years....yes, we flew midweek, but we had no problems booking or changing the reservation on any of the trips. Our daughter now lives in the west, and by using FF miles, we are able to visit more often and spend more $$ on the rest of our trip. I have had good experiences with the Delta FF program!

It would be helpful to know which airlines make that process easier....I would switch to them in a heartbeat!!!

How can Delta sell to credit card companies?? I cancelled my Delta-american express after 10 years (850 usd annual fee). Economically stupid, It was my mistake.

I know you are only depicting certain things, but perhaps a footnote is warranted, since this chart makes those two programs look mediocre.
