The Coolest Thing You Can Do with 12.5k to 92.5k Delta SkyMiles
May 14, 2015
Updated 5/14/15 with current prices and routing rules. Screen shots show old prices.
Delta SkyMiles get a bad rap--very deservedly so--for the lack of Saver (Level 1) award availability that Delta releases, the fuel surcharges Delta charges on awards, the inability to add stopovers on awards, and the fact that Delta deleted its chart from the internet.
But it does not follow that Delta miles are worthless.

Anatomy of an Award: Tahiti, New Zealand & Australia on One Trip Using Delta Skymiles
April 3, 2013
Update 11/6/14: Here is an Anatomy of an Award post in which we book the theoretical award below for an actual client!
Two of the most frequent destination requests we receive at our Award Booking Service are Bora Bora and Australia/New Zealand. These are the aspirational trips that families want to take after diligently saving their frequent flyer miles. Luckily, both trips can be accomplished in a single award. Even better--Delta SkyMiles are the mileage currency to use. We recently had a couple with a sizable SkyMiles balance who wanted to visit both places.

Anatomy of an Award: Membership Rewards to Argentina
April 2, 2013
I recently booked a family of four an economy award from Miami to Buenos Aires with their Membership Rewards. It was an interesting award that I think demonstrates the complexities and fun of booking with American Express points.
I won't talk about that award specifically, but I'll use it as a jumping off point for discussion since it illustrates a typical Memberhip Rewards situation.

A System to Get to Europe with Delta SkyMiles
November 6, 2012
I use three steps to get to my European destination with Delta SkyMiles. For each direction:
Find transatlantic space.
Find domestic space within the US on Delta or Alaska from my home airport to the international gateway.
Find intra-European space to my destination.
Those steps are roughly in order of difficulty--though many times finding domestic space on Delta is impossible at the low-miles price.
