I see why they call them "Sky Pesos" now! I know its been said many times before, but I just can't get over how useless my Delta Skymiles are. I finally decided to cash in some miles and just booked an economy award ticket to Asia for this coming fall 2013. I compared prices (in FF miles) between both Delta and United Airlines for the same route in coach. The disparity between the two programs is mind boggling. Delta was asking for a whopping 215,000 miles and United wanted 65,000 for the exact same destination! Obviously, I was happy to book with United. Not only is Delta's FF program lousy, but their service tends to be the worst as well. I'm surprised that they are able to survive while being so uncompetitive. I will continue to avoid them.
