The changes made to the Delta reserve actually made it a long term keeper card for me. The upgraded companion cert made it so for me!

Good video. However, You are totally mistaken on one detail. 11:54. The Delta Companion Certificate (from either card) are fully transferable. Any two Delta SkyMiles members may be booked for the passengers for the use of either certificate.

Thanks a bunch for your video! We’ve been using the Delta Gold for the past year, but recently, we got a Delta Platinum and a Reserve while getting an impressive 190,000 miles for both cards and achieving silver status. Your video was super helpful. We were thinking of getting rid of the Gold before it renews since it overlaps with the Platinum. Can you think of any reason why keeping the Gold with the Platinum and the Reserve is a good idea, especially considering the Gold’s $150 annual fee? Thx!

Thanks for watching the video! I would personally just stick with the Platinum and Reserve card, assuming you are making good use of the benefits on offer. Whilst the Gold card is a good card, Im not sure that having 3 cards makes sense. Just note that if you do get rid of the Gold card you may see a dip in your credit score.

question for you I just upgraded to reserve because my partner and I wanna be able to use the lounges. Are we able to access the sky lounge if we don’t fly first class? Also, I am the one who holds the car and makes the reservation, say for example I get upgraded to comfort + or first class, is the other person I’m traveling with upgraded too?

Hi, Thanks for your question! To access the Delta SkyClub you must be traveling on a same day Delta marked flight and you must be traveling on a fare that is above a Basic Economy fare. Also, it allows for you to bring 2 guest along, but that will cost an additional $50 per guest. Thankfully they also provide you with 4 complimentary one time guest passes to the Delta SkyClub. As for getting upgraded with a companion, as long as they are on the same reservation as you AND are either a SkyMiles Member, Medallion Member, or partner airline elite member, you will both be eligible for an upgrade.

If I have 2 of these do the bonus MQDs stack for Silver automatically?
@dannyshep
@dannyshep 7 ай бұрын
I'm not sure, I assume if they were in the same name and attached to the same account they may do. It would be worth contacting Delta directly to find out for sure.

If you have both the reserve and platinum then yes you get 2500 MQD boost for each card. You can get gold status automatically if you have all the business and personal platinum and reserve. You can also use the plat on each side to get auto silver for a bit cheaper.

Great vid! I have always wondered about accessing partner lounges. For example I travel to Europe a lot and notice that Delta does not have any lounges in Paris or Amsterdam, yet they are Skyteam partners. My question is whether any of the cards gives you certain access to the KLM or AirFrance lounge?
@dannyshep
@dannyshep 7 ай бұрын
Thank you! I don't believe they provide access to anything other than DeltaSkyClubs, Centurion Lounge and U.S. Escape Lounges. Although I could be wrong!

Great video! Question for you: I just got the Delta Reserve Amex card. It’s been great so far, but since there’s an option to add an additional Delta SkyMiles platinum card to my account without an annual fee, do you recommend me getting it, since it has a higher miles earning potential?
@dannyshep
@dannyshep 6 ай бұрын
Thank you! I assume the Platinum card is being offered to you for no extra charge for the actually card but still with an annual fee? If there is no annual fee at all I would get the card, Either way, if you did get the Platinum card as well it will provide you with a companion certificate, and better miles earning potential.

Yes, it’s being offered with no annual fee. That’s why I was considering it. But your answer and logic was very helpful with helping to make my choice. Thank you so much!
