How to obtain Delta Status?

Delta was the first airline to attach a spending requirement to their elite status requirements for members living in the United States, if you "live" abroad you can get a waiver, but for most US flyers you need to fulfill the requirements which vary depending on each status level but vary between 3000-15,000 in "spending" depending on the the level you wish to obtain.

This was usually interpreted as a highly negative change for those of us who play the mileage game, but every-time a door closes a window opens up allowing us to continue to maximize our status at the lowest cost.

MQD Runs

Are you a frequent Delta flyer with significant MQMs who misses out on upgrades because your low MQD count and stuck at Gold when you could be a Delta Platinum or Diamond? 

We have published dozens of deals that allow you to maximize the value you get from each flight. We developed the MQD Ratio model that shows how many MQDs you can obtain per Dollar spent on Partner Airlines.

If you fly Delta this value is always below 1 as certain taxes and fees are not used in the calculation of MQDs. But when flying partner airlines, MQDs are calculated as a % of flown distance (0% to even 60% of distance) and it's very possible to find ratios of 2, 3 or in some case 5 to 1. 

Reach out and we can "hack" your Delta MQD spend!

We understand that "time is money" and with team members that are ex-Consultants we are driven towards allowing you to obtain status, miles and trips at the optimal value for you!
