Post DL Holiday Card

I made PM too late last year to get one of these. I got one yesterday (I'll make PM Lite, soon). Just wondering, anyone else received a "holiday card" from Delta?

WHEREVER YOUR HOLIDAY TRAVELS TAKE YOU, WE WISH YOU A WARM WELCOME HOME.

Happy holidays from your friends at Delta. We would like to thank you for flying with us.

To show our appreciation, we will make a 5 million mile contribution to the Delta SkyWish charities, on behalf of valued members like you.

We enjoy having you on board and look forward to taking you to all kinds of wonderful places in the New Year.

My wife and I both got the same card yesterday.

However, ours both had a coupon for 100,000 Delta Dollars as well. You better check your trash.

While very touching, I think the money spent on printing should be going elsewhere in DL right now.

Me thinks someone raided my mailbox for my coupon. I feel certain that in the holiday spirit, you'll share yours with me, won't you -

and don't forget postage, as well - I kinda felt the same way.

I'm also curious if this only went to PMs or did others get it too?

Checked my trash twice. Zip - Zero - Nada Delta Dollars in my envelope.

I guess I am not "Loved" by Delta.

Why? It's advertising. I still remember the Christmas (err, holiday ) card I got from Delta last year. It's a nice touch and a welcome change to the barrage of SkyMiles AMEX applications.

javajunkie, I was going to give you the whole thing but our cat ate it. Oh wait, we don't have a cat anymore, so it must have been the (computer) mouse, now running amok, that devoured it. Have a great holiday.

i was honored i got the card on Sat. even with just my FO level
but i also was a few short on the delta dollars
and i would have taken a few skymiles
it is better to give than receive
and i hope delta will make a number of kids happy by making theirs wishes come true when they are in need
i hope it would be in FC
they can have my delta dallors and miles

Gee, I got two Delta Dollar coupons in the highly personalized card for making PM lite in May!

I called, sorry, the coupons are blacked out for 2006!

I didn't get a card. Maybe I didn't spend enough on my Delta Amex? Oh wait, I don't have one of those.

It's because you live in a Delta monopoly city. Delta strikes off its list people who live in MLB, CSG, ABY, VLD, MCN, BQK, ISO, MEI, DHN, EKO and CDC.
