Do you know what your airline status is?
You know…the color that tells everyone how special (or not) you are?
I’m Silver in the eyes of Delta…just about to cross that magic threshold to Gold, but not quite there yet. And I can’t even see the Promised Land of Platinum from where I sit in coach.
Yes, I’m Silver. But John? John is Gold. All this usually means is that he gets bumped up to 1st class if it’s a 45 minute flight to Dubuque in non-rush-hour.
The other day, however, it meant more.
