So I've been with Delta for 8+ years because of American Express I'm a Gold Medallion member since I don't get to fly for work and essentially take 8-12 flights a year.

However, recently I had to cancel because of Covid and I lost my companion pass. I received my email stating my E-Credit so I called Delta. Not only did they give me my companion pass back, they gave me my upgrades, plus 10,000 miles to use later. Now it isn't a lot but I wasn't asking for it either so it was just a bonus.

It sucks that Delta is gonna take blows like everyone else from all of this.

They've done everything right over the last few years and have pulled well ahead of the competition.

What benefits are there from being Amex gold/platinum?

Is it just that their cards are tied to Delta points? Like Chase is with United and Southwest?

I think he was suggesting that he earned status with credit card spending?

Companion pass


So you get companion pass with Delta if you’re an Amex Plat card holder?

Not with the OG Amex Plat (charge card)

But you do get one with the Skymiles Amex Platinum.

It's their way to offset the yearly fee, companion pass I can use to pretty much anywhere in the US. I have used it to travel to a city and then booked a cheaper ticket for overseas travel though.
