Introducing the 2010 SkyMiles Medallion Program
Delta is the only U.S. global airline that flies to 6 continents—and now brings you the world's largest and best-in-class elite loyalty program in the industry.
As Delta and Northwest Airlines merge into one airline, we've taken the best of both worlds—Delta SkyMiles and Northwest WorldPerks programs—to give our most loyal flyers the benefits and privileges they deserve. We've done this by retaining all of the benefits of the existing program and introducing new features that no other airline offers.
New Medallion Benefits
Coming spring 2010, you can enjoy these new Medallion benefits:
Rollover Miles
Rollover Medallion Qualification Miles (MQMs)
They’re your miles, so why not keep them from year to year? It's an airline first—any MQMs you've earned above your Medallion qualification level at the end of the year will rollover to your MQM balance for the following year. Whether you carry over 500 miles or one million, there’s no limit.
