The
Tommie LewisHOST
airlines, they granted me 5,000 SkyMile points.
Tommie LewisHOST
It was basically $5,000 worth of airfare.
Tommie LewisHOST
Everyone in first class, when I say everyone, it's literally 25 to 30 people came up to me and baggage claimed and said, Were you, was that your wife? I was like, no, I don't know.
Gunnar OlsonHOST
Delicious.
Gunnar OlsonHOST
In order to book Delta One Suites, It is tougher because you are relying on these Delta SkyMiles flash sales, which are a little bit random.
Gunnar OlsonHOST
There are some trends to them, one of which is, you know, you're going to find pretty solid flash sales every year on off season flights to more popular places like Europe.
Gunnar OlsonHOST
But we also in the past have seen them just do these big flash sales that just encompass peak summer as well.
Gunnar OlsonHOST
I mean, peak season in Italy, and they're just trying to to move supply and move into inventory on those flights, too.
Gunnar OlsonHOST
But we also see them target new destinations, especially this is the big.
Gunnar OlsonHOST
one this is the big one i mean taipei hong kong brisbane all of those within their first year of announcing and starting those routes we saw big crazy sky miles flash sales including flying delta one um the rates vary i mean we found recently 48 000 sky miles round trip in delta one to bogota uh and then you know as low as 97 000 sky miles each way to europe or asia um Most of the time, it's a little higher than that, just a little over 100,000 SkyMiles each way during those SkyMiles flash sales.
Gunnar OlsonHOST
But really solid rates, but it's not as reliable.
MB SamuelGUEST
I...
MB SamuelGUEST
You know, my dad signed me up for Sky Miles when I was three.
Reza SatchuHOST
[laughs]
MB SamuelGUEST
I, I've been a Delta customer literally as long as I've been alive, and can't count the number of Delta employees I know, because it's such a big employer and brand in the Atlanta community.
Sean CudahyGUEST
And United's really bullish on the fact that they've been rolling out Starlink to these planes.
Sean CudahyGUEST
They've been very aggressive at trying to court members of Delta's SkyMiles program over to United.
Sean CudahyGUEST
Real kind of competition there from airlines.
Sean CudahyGUEST
Several of the other biggest carriers are also in the process of rolling out Starlink.
Nicole MaraneGUEST
And I said, great.
Nicole MaraneGUEST
When I audition, where else should I audition? Eastman with me and so we went back and forward a few times finally I was like okay we want to work together got it so I flew over on Sky Miles that I had saved for an audition in February in Rochester and long story short did a master's degree and a doctorate degree with David Higgs at the Eastman School of Music yay fun fact is that I arrived in August 2001 so a month before 9-11.
Wesley HallHOST
Okay.
Wesley HallHOST
So
Martha KellyHOST
I'm going to be honest.
Martha KellyHOST
The decision, the last minute decision to go to Austin next week, since I bought my ticket, when I say bought, I used SkyMiles.
Martha KellyHOST
But since I got my ticket, it's like I'm going to have to cancel several plans.
Martha KellyHOST
And then I've been getting messages and emails about more fun stuff that's happening here while I'll be gone.
Joey CamastaHOST
You can use all the airlines.
Joey CamastaHOST
I think it's all comparable at the end, but I'm a Delta SkyMiles member.
Joey CamastaHOST
So what I was able to do is transfer all my credit card points, all my... my Amex points to my Delta.
Joey CamastaHOST
So I ended up getting all these points.
