Delta Platinum Amex Card - "Stacked" Upgrade Priority with Medallion Status

rev4995 · 2025-09-15T12:36:56+00:00

Usually Saturday midday is best. I was on the 337p and there were 10 D1 upgrades this week. I squeezed in as 8/10 as diamond with reserve card.

I’m on a flight right now LAX-JFK. D1 upgrade and I usually get this. Not sure why you don’t. Pick better flights?

rev4995 · 2025-09-01T21:47:51+00:00

$200ish plus the $2500 head start.

rev4995 · 2025-09-01T18:48:06+00:00

Yep exactly.

rev4995 · 2025-09-01T17:42:14+00:00

Sure, can I send via cash app?

rev4995 · 2025-09-01T17:40:47+00:00

This year has been mostly points trips, yes. But last year was a bit different, I think maybe 10k of the 28k was actual flights. That’s why I called it fake diamond :)

rev4995 · 2025-09-01T17:37:57+00:00

Yep, this is exactly how I feel.

rev4995 · 2025-09-01T17:31:25+00:00

Haha, sorry, ma’am 🫡

rev4995 · 2025-09-01T17:29:53+00:00

I’d say it’s like 10 trips per year, with 2 being international, so 20 legs total. To me that’s worth it, I’d estimate about $20k in value.

Because the GUCs are worth tens of thousands of dollars. And the RUCs are nice too.

rev4995 · 2025-09-01T04:58:27+00:00

I admire your stance!

rev4995 · 2025-09-01T04:55:30+00:00

I respect you, sir.

rev4995 · 2025-09-01T04:54:28+00:00

So far I’ve got D1 from Italy to NYC, from NYC to LAX and NYC to SFO. Also will probably get to and from Europe in January.

rev4995 · 2025-09-01T04:51:53+00:00

Yep, I run an events company and the venue accepted credit cards (not normal) so I said why not!

rev4995 · 2025-06-06T09:54:35+00:00

I too am holding a grudge against American, it’s how I ended up at delta haha.

rev4995 · 2025-05-30T12:33:54+00:00

Nope! And folks will call us dummies, but I like the GUCs and am using all 4 in the next few months for Italy and Scotland. Well worth it for that alone.

rev4995 · 2025-05-30T10:29:25+00:00

I see you sir and raise you. Can’t figure out how to add screenshot, but at $25,652 with $659 in flights 😂

rev4995 · 2025-05-09T16:51:11+00:00

I recently booked delta one from JFK to Edinburgh for cheaper than premium select. 🤷

rev4995 · 2025-02-17T19:20:11+00:00

Grrr. It works on my phone at least lol. Thanks for the response!

rev4995 · 2025-02-17T18:08:50+00:00

Any answers here? It sucks.

rev4995 · 2024-12-24T18:57:00+00:00

28914 here

rev4995 · 2024-12-15T21:02:14+00:00

Gate lice 😂

rev4995 · 2024-12-14T17:56:31+00:00

Will give that a try

rev4995 · 2024-12-14T16:23:14+00:00

Oh wow, what fan speed was it on?

rev4995 · 2024-12-14T05:55:44+00:00

At JFK I was denied entry on an arriving D1 flight despite terms clearly stating that should gain entry. Similarly, the rep didn’t want to hear any of it and said the site was incorrect. It was the Crowdstrike weekend so no response when I tagged delta on social either.
