Have you personally used one/any of them to redeem award travel? How was that experience?
Do you (like me) put all your expenses (or those that you can) on your card every month in order to garner as many miles possible?
I've redeemed both the Flex Perks and the Delta card, and the FlexPerks is definitely the easiest to redeem. Dates are ALWAYS available, and they only charge 20,000 miles for a $400 ticket, while Delta charges 25,000 miles for same ticket.
I also knew Delta to be 25,000 miles to redeem a ticket. Because of that, we always flew Dalta to build up our miles, we have over 30,100 miles ea. To my dismay, a few months ago, we put in our Delta sky miles to redeem our tickets to KC. Only to get a Delta message saying, "40,000" miles are now required to redeem tickets! Fuckers!
So fuckum, now we use Jet Blue, Southwest, US Ailr, any airline other then Delta.
They now can take those 30,100+ miles and shove em where the sun don't shine! It's their loss in the long run.
