Delta plans cutbacks for frequent fliers

Delta Air Lines, which filed voluntarily for reorganization under Chapter 11 in September, recently announced plans to stop free membership to its airport clubs for its top frequent fliers, as well as raise fees for other tier levels.

Randy Petersen, Editor of InsideFlyer magazine was quoted in the Wall Street Journal as saying that Delta was removing the one perk that helped Delta make its elite flier program better than others and at a time when Delta “needs every bit of goodwill from its best customers.”

Delta said it was just conforming its policies to be more in line with other major airlines……Lets just hope this is not an indication of things to come for this great Air Line.
