New Oasis For Premium Customers Traveling Through RDU

Published December 3rd, 2009 in Airport, SkyMiles, delta.com | 4 Comments →

Tuesday was the grand opening of our new Sky Club lounge at Raleigh-Durham International Airport. It was an exciting day for all of us here at RDU because we once again have a place for our premium customers to get out of the hustle and bustle of the concourse. We’re proud of our new facility and the amenities it will offer to our Sky Club members and the oasis it offers.

Cyber Monday: Shop Online & Earn Miles

Published November 30th, 2009 in SkyMiles, delta.com | No Comments →

Looking to avoid lines, crowds and traffic (you get enough at the airport, right)? Prefer shopping instead of those spreadsheets? Then today is your kind of day. It’s the first Monday after Thanksgiving (a.k.a. Cyber Monday), when online retailers trot out some of the best deals of the year.

What’s even better? There’s a one-stop shop — SkyMilesShopping.com — where you can visit more than 500 merchants AND earn miles for shopping. Take advantage of the below gift ideas (and many others) while you rack up miles:

1. Go big at Dell Home Systems and buy the Studio ONE 19 All-in-One desktop with touch screen monitor for only $699! At 2 miles per $1, that’s over 1,300 miles just for you!

2. Shopping for her? What about a Cole Haan Village Double Drawstring Tote for $259 at eBags.com? It’s not only 25% off, but earns you 5 miles per $1! Yep, that’s another 1,300 miles.

3. Weren’t you going to Toys”R”Us anyway for that little tyke on your list? Get 2 miles for every $1 when you shop online.

4. Is it the year to finally buy that LCD TV you’ve been wanting? Oohh… Imagine the Super Bowl on that new HDTV. Plus, you’ll rack up 3 miles for every dollar spent at Sears through SkyMiles Shopping!

5. Stock up on books, magazines and more at Barnes & Noble and enjoy FREE 3-day shipping on orders of at least $25 and 6 miles per dollar.

We’re not even done with our complete shopping list and have already racked up close to 6,000 miles. So check out SkyMilesShopping.com and the great deals available at favorite retailers, including Target.com, Walmart, Apple, Best Buy, Macy’s, iTunes and Harry and David.

Do you have any Cyber Monday tips to share? Any SkyMiles Shopping mileage-earning tips?

Happy holidays!

New SkyMiles Medallion Program

Published July 28th, 2009 in SkyMiles | 30 Comments →

Today marks a major step in the integration of the SkyMiles® and WorldPerks® programs and of Delta and Northwest – as we unveil details of the 2010 SkyMiles Medallion program. Check out all of the details (including Rollover MQMs, Diamond Medallion Status, No Direct Ticketing Fees, Unlimited Complimentary Upgrades on Award Tickets) at delta.com/newskymiles. I hope you agree that these changes are a big step forward in making our SkyMiles Medallion program the best in the industry.

Also, keep in mind that as we roll out this new program, savvy SkyMiles members will be able to earn a few benefits twice. For example, if you earn 75,000 Medallion Qualification Miles (MQMs) this calendar year, you’ll receive six Platinum Medallion system-wide upgrade certificates with your credential package. Then, once the Choice Benefits are implemented early next year, you’ll also have the option to receive four new system-wide upgrade certificates.

Check out what people are saying about our program changes: Forrester Blog, Cranky Flier, WSJ Blog, Boarding Area Blog, Upgrade: Travel Better Blog, more? Let us know!

New SkyMiles Check Card Launches

Published July 10th, 2009 in SkyMiles | 8 Comments →

Our SkyMiles members have been asking us for a mileage-earning check card for awhile now, so we looked for a banking partner that shared our commitment to delivering world-class customer service and providing more options to customers. SunTrust is the ideal partner with a strong, complementary network in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic.

A traditional check card typically rewards one point or mile for every $4 spent, which is why we’re pretty excited that our new check cards will be one of the fastest-earning programs in the U.S. (And don’t fret if SunTrust doesn’t bank in your area, because we’re looking to soon add other check card partners too.)

What does this mean for you? The lowest annual fees in the industry, added security, fast access to cash at over 2,700 SunTrust ATMs and ease of use at Visa® merchants worldwide.

There are three options available:

  • Classic: earns one mile for every $2 purchased and 2,500 bonus miles for the first signed purchase; annual fee is only $20.
  • Platinum: earns one mile for every $1 purchased, plus for your first signed purchase you get 5,000 bonus miles and a complimentary Delta Sky Club Day Pass; annual fee is $55.
  • Business: earns one mile for every $1 purchased, plus you get 5,000 bonus miles and a complimentary Delta Sky Club Day Pass for the first signed purchase; annual fee is $55.

Enrollment is now open, so sign up at any SunTrust location, call 1-877-SUNTRUST or visit suntrust.com/skymiles for more information.

What do you think about our newest mileage-earning option?

‘Till next time,

Mark Goblirsch
