Upgraded for the weekend!

I have flights this weekend, TRI-ATL-EWR round trip on Delta, and I was upgraded at my Gold Medallion window of three days in advance of travel. This is a definite perk of being a frequent flier, upgrade chances. Delta gives you the opportunity for unlimited upgrades based on availability, as do Northwest and US Airways. I used to fly US Airways almost exclusively until about eight months after the merger with America West, when service started declining. The turning point for me was not being able to access my usairways.com Dividend Miles account during the summer of 2006.  I joined FFOCUS, became more active at FlyerTalk, explored elite status matches, and tried out other airlines that I had not flown in years.
