YouTube Account Update
Sneak Peek: Our Website is Growing
The long awaited transition of delta.com to the same layout of nwa.com: 1024×768 is tentatively scheduled for launch in July.
It has not been a small task to say the least. We’re at close to 600 files and growing. The last time I know that this many files were moved into production at the same time was 2005.
Here is a sneak peek at what the home page will look like (click to magnify):
Looking forward to answering any questions you may have.

Your Take: Email, Now Updated
You may have noticed that your Delta emails about fare sales, SkyMiles promotions and program updates, and other partner offers look a little different starting today.
Yesterday we launched our first mailing in our newly redesigned Marketing email template. The template has been updated to provide you with an easier read, quicker access to delta.com, and more personalized and relevant information.
We hope you enjoy our new design, which you’ll see on all future Delta emails. What’s your take?

The Online Booking Bonus Is Back
Anyone remember the online booking bonus at delta.com?
In the 1990’s the novelty of buying a plane ticket online made some folks a little nervous, so we gave customers bonus miles for booking online at delta.com.
But by 2007, customers like you discovered that in addition to finding Delta’s lowest fares they could rest assured that there weren’t any online travel agency booking fees, that they had access to the full range of advance seat assignments, could check in online, manage their SkyMiles, rent cars, get destination info, and lots more. People no longer needed the additional incentive to book directly at delta.com
Starting today for a limited time, we’re bringing back our online booking bonus. As a thanks to you, our loyal delta.com users, you will now earn up to 500 bonus miles on all flights you book at delta.com between April 28 and May 31, 2009. It’s our way of not only thanking you for your loyalty, but also to encourage other customers to save time and money by going to the only site that guarantees you’ll get Delta’s lowest fares online: delta.com.
Please pass this along to your friends too… Summer is fast approaching and Delta’s the only U.S. airline flying with you to six continents.
Are there any other favorite ‘retro’ promotions or programs you’d like to see return?
Thanks for your loyalty!
