Delta is the first US airline to extend elite status. That makes sense as they’re typically a trend-setter, for better and for worse, while airlines like American and United just follow their lead.

Here is a summary of what Delta is doing:

  • Delta SkyMiles Medallion Elite Status will be extended by 12 months, so if you have status expiring 1/31/21, it will now expire 1/31/22.
  • All MQMs earned towards elite status in 2020 will be rolled over to 2021 in order to qualify for 2022 status.
  • Delta SkyClub memberships expiring 3/1/20 or later will receive a 6 month extension.
  • Delta Gold AMEX $100 flight credits will receive a 6 month extension.
  • Delta Platinum/Reserve AMEX companion certificates expiring between 3/1/20-6/30/20 will be extended through 12/31/20. Certificates expiring 7/1/20-4/1/21 will receive a 6 month extension.
  • Delta Reserve AMEX SkyClub guess passes will receive a 6 month extension.
  • Upgrade certificates and $200 travel vouchers expiring between 3/1/20-6/30/20 will be extended through 12/31/20. Certificates expiring 7/1/20-4/1/21 will receive a 6 month extension.
  • SkyMiles Select members will receive a 6 month extension.
  • As previously announced, eCredits are being extended until 5/31/22.

Your move American, JetBlue, Southwest, and United…

Let’s hope the other airlines follow the example….

JetBlue did as well for Mosaic (except for those who get Mosaic through Credit Card spend)

A good start for the US airline industry.

Does it apply to those who were gifted Gold status by a Diamond member?

Chaim

+1 wondering about this too.

Mendel

Anyone know about United status match?
Will that be extended?

David

How about 3 month challenges? In the middle of one. Good timing!

Do you think this is smart for Delta?
There is no incentive for members to be loyal one they are back in service.

Ari

Sure, wouldn’t you rather fly with an airline that you have elite status with?

Judith Hellerstein

What about MQDs. The email I received today did not mention this?
