Delta Mileage Fraud
28 Feb 2010 at 02:20 am
Now that NWA is gone and have the Delta logo, I guess all NWA worldperks miles are also down the toilet.
Wonder if any of the readers here have found out the conversion miles under Delta Skymiles versus the NWA Worldperks.
I used to fly international frequently and it’s about 60,000 miles to have a free rewards tickets to Asia. Now under the Delta Skymiles, it will be upwards of 150,000!!!
What a ripoff from Delta! Imagine how a business can rape customer and this is a GANG RAPE!!!
I wish I had all my previous miles from flying Alaska credited to my Alaska miles instead of NWA worldperks. As I redeem my Alaska miles to Asia last year, I was able to fly First class from Seattle to San Francisco, then Business class from San Francisco to Hong Kong. Round trip only took 100,000 miles. Now Delta is asking 150,000 miles for a coach, FU Delta!!!
This should be report to BBB and have the Justice Department opens an investigations on Delta. Mileage points should considered a medium of exchange equvilent to money. It should be illegal to change it like this, same as all the crooks who keep stock splits and reverse splits.
For all of the readers here, please watch out for Delta flight delays as this can get them fined by the FAA. If FAA is doing their job, they should ground Delta. Give their routes to someone else who wants to server customers. Southwest, JetBlue, Virgin America etc., they are discount airlines but at least they try to WIN customer on price! Instead of a GANG BANG…
Write to your congressmen!

I understand your situation. I can feel your pain but remember that Delta is a long-time expert in speculation since federal laws don’t rule airlines miles. We need to propose airlines miles rules through US Congress.
Do not fly on Delta on domestic or international routes. Fly on foreign airlines and they will treat you equally.
Use Starwood credit card points program and you are boss with miles and airlines options.

I KNOW DELTA IS HORRIBLE. 2008 it was 55k NWA Miles to fly to Europe 2009 it was 60K now that the mile have turned to Delta its 125K THAT IS FRAUD…. MISREPRESENTATION and is UNCONSCIONABLE… Can’t wait to see a class action develop.
