Today, we’re going to recap some of the exceptional value you can extract from Delta’s frequent flyer program. From 5,000 miles domestic hops to business-class flights across the Atlantic on Virgin Atlantic, you can still get top value for your SkyMiles!

Delta no longer publishes an award chart, but you can still achieve top-value Delta SkyMiles redemptions if you know the minimum number of miles you can pay for your destination. We’ve done all the work for you by assembling our own, unofficial Delta award chart for international travel to and from the U.S.

If you’re looking to bank a serious balance of SkyMiles, American Express has increased the welcome bonus on six of its seven Delta co-brand credit cards, with four cards dishing up record offers for new cardmembers.

Of the U.S. carriers, Delta may have the most options for earning miles through everyday spending. While the Delta co-brand credit cards have great benefits, the fastest way to earn SkyMiles could be by earning Amex Membership Rewards instead.

Delta has introduced a new option to upgrade existing reservations on its website. The upgrades can be purchased using cash or SkyMiles for any flight segment operated by Delta Airlines.

American Express Membership Rewards are a notoriously powerful, transferable, loyalty currency. With generous category bonuses and periodic transfer bonuses, it isn’t hard to rack up Amex points. However, it can be difficult determining how to maximize Membership Rewards for simple US domestic award flights. Thankfully by leveraging various airline alliances and partners, there are sweet spots for domestic travel.

With so many Delta co-branded credit cards, one of the most common questions we field on the blog, and in our Facebook community Award Travel 101, is can I hold multiple Delta Amex cards? The answer is a resounding YES!

Washington state residents who are Delta SkyMiles members will be happy to learn that the 12 status promotion is returning for its third year. Like last year, you will earn SkyMiles for every yard the Seattle Seahawks throws during the football season. This promotion is one of the easiest ways to earn Delta SkyMiles with minimal effort and time.

One-way trips to Europe will now set you back 82,000 SkyMiles plus taxes and fees for an award in Business. This is a 17% increase on the previous price of 70,000 SkyMiles.

Delta has announced a flash sale with roundtrip awards to Europe starting at 33,000 miles plus taxes and fees, and routes to Asia starting at 50,000 miles plus taxes and fees. Routes to Mexico are a steal at 12,000 SkyMiles roundtrip.  If you want to take advantage of this promotion, you will have to hurry since bookings must be made by June 13, 2018.
