ScottJSmithNY's Full Review: Delta SkyMiles
I have fallen for the Delta Skymiles 5000 mile bonus plus frequent double miles on everything, bonus this, bunus that, SCAM. Sounded great until I tried to REDEEM these plentiful miles.

Almost every flight I can find, they want to charge me 50,000 miles(First Class redeemed flights are only 45,000). They call it SKYCHOICE.

Very few flight are classified SKYSAVER for 25,000. The few I could find wouldn't give me 2 passengers together, and/or had a stop in an out of the way hub connection.

I'm sticking to Starwood Starpoints card. They give you a flight for 20,000. US Air gives flights off season for 20,000 (Before Feb28), USAIR's freq flier program is excellent. So I get a free flight for virtually 15,000 miles!
