Yep, there are some very nice bonuses when using the American Express card from Delta Airlines! Annual Companion Certificate Platinum Delta SkyMiles® Credit Card is one of them!
For years already we have put all eggs in one basket and are solely using Delta Airlines.
Also their Platinum Delta SkyMiles® Credit Card from American Express, is a big help for accumulating miles for eventually free tickets.

Paying off very high medical bills, using that Platinum Delta SkyMiles® Credit Card from American Express, makes you get a fat bonus of 10,000 Medallion Qualification Miles and 10,000 bonus miles for spending US $ 25,000 within the calendar year!
Well, only 2 days before departure on May 31, it said Freeze Warning for Monday midnight till 8:00 AM for Mackinaw City, MI where we were heading to on the 2nd of June...
Temperatures above are in °C and not in °F.
Avoiding the traffic jam and parking issues of Atlanta, we opt for departure from Savannah.
Easy parking under a roof, conveniently close by.
High courtesy and efficiency at security check and fast luggage pick up; even though we fly carry on for domestic flights.
WELCOME TO MICHIGAN!
Picking up a cute rental car at Herz, a Mazda2 in blue and off to Mackinaw City in north Michigan...
BIG surprise to see those enormous vehicles; youtube video for showing you!
Yes, we were being on I-75 north, together with such 42-wheelers!
The so-called Michigan Truck Road Trains, that also are allowed into neighboring Ontario/Canada.

Dear Mariette, those air miles do add up when you are a frequent traveler. We use Alaskan Air, here in the Pacific Northwest. I hope you have a safe trip! Hugs xo Karen
ReplyDeleteDearest Karen,
DeleteAs seen on those boarding passes, the trip happened on June 2 already! I will never ever post anything while we're traveling. Always afterwards and neither do I announce it ahead of time.
Hugs,
Mariette

Mooi meegenomen wanneer je kan profiteren van dergelijke voordelen.
ReplyDeleteMij zegt het helemaal niks al die bonussen en kortingen en ik zal mijn vakantie of uitstapjes daar zeker niet vanaf laten hangen.
Wat dat betreft ben ik niet het type Nederlander die er voor bekend staat altijd op voordeel uit te zijn.
Kies iets uit wat bij mijn beurs past en mijn persoontje en deel uit enthousiasme op de blog graag mijn vakantie ervaringen en soms uitstapjes maar heb geen behoefte om het kostenplaatje of eventuele kortingen tijdens die pleziertjes erbij te vermelden want dat heeft in mijn optiek geen meerwaarde voor de lezer.
Ook al ben ik geen fan van het grootse maar meer van het landelijke en knusse toch kijk ik met belangstelling uit naar je volgende vakantie trips
Fijne dag en lieve groet,
Ger
Beste Ger,
DeleteJe hoeft echt geen Nederlander te zijn om gebruik te maken van de mogelijkheden die iemand met een beetje verstand kan gebruiken. B.v. mijn zus kwam ook hier naar toe op een ticket, bijeen gespaard met air-miles.
Wat het kostenplaatje betreft; wij zouden bepaalde trips niet hebben kunnen maken, zonder gebruik te maken van de door mij genoemde mogelijkheden m.b.t. airline tickets, hotels etc.
Er is altijd wel iemand die er wel zijn voordeel mee kan doen.
Liefs en beterschap.
Mariette
Opwindend een reisje. Ben benieuwd naar de foto's.
ReplyDeleteHi, dearest Mariette.
ReplyDeleteMany years ago I`ve been working for Iberia. I know Delta airlines. It´s a very good airline, and sure as well. Enjoy with this holidays, and enjoy the travel too.
Hugs.
María
Dearest María,
DeleteIndeed, Iberia is one of their alliances and my friend Mariëlle used the Delta/Iberia combination in May when she visited us!
Hugs,
Mariette
What a nice perk that that card has.
ReplyDeleteDearest Janey,
DeleteOh, this is a very nice perk indeed!
Hugs,
Mariette
It's really nice you get such nice bonus rewards! I've also been using only Delta Airlines and used accumulated miles for free ticket before. It's good idea to fly from Savannah as Atlanta traffic can be really, really bad! That's a very nice car you rented. Looking forward to your post about the trip :-)
ReplyDeleteP.S. I'm sorry about chigger bites. I've experienced really intense itching and big swellings from bug bite, too. I know your pain! (Itchy, but painful experience)
Dearest Tamago,
DeleteYou sure do know about these rewards! Oh, Savannah for us is such a huge difference in traffic. I'm doing fine now but it sure was a very nasty experience. Seems that I'm very allergic to things like that, as Pieter did not show those symptoms.
Hugs,
Mariette
Que legal, com esse bônus pode-se passear e conhecer belos lugares. Eu não tenho cartão de crédito compro tudo com dinheiro. Por esse lado vale a pena ter um cartão de crédito, mas sou compulsiva por compras. Só compro se tenho dinheiro. Que caminhão imenso, deve ser assustador ser ultrapassado por ele.
ReplyDeleteBjos e que sua viagem seja maravilhosa.
Dearest Anajá,
DeleteYes, it really pays off for having a credit card this way. Also American Express is great in protecting you if you ever have a dispute with a seller or whatever. It feels safer than having cash money. For us it was super because of different currencies when traveling as international consultants.
All in all, definitely a win-win situation.
Hugs,
Mariette
Hé hé, voilà un beau voyage en préparation !
ReplyDeleteA bientôt et grosses bises.
Those huge trucks are one reason why our roads are in such bad repair. They are the worst!
ReplyDeleteLiebste Mariette,
ReplyDeletedas ist eine tolle Einrichtung, dass man die Miles sammeln kann.
Bin gespannt auf die weiteren Berichte über diese Reise!
Ein tolles Bergfest wünscht dir
Irmi
Dearest Mariette,
ReplyDeleteWhen you had rented nice michigan neighboring trips car. You huge diffeence in traffic was very bad..

Michiko
Mariette, You are very smart to not announce that you are out of town on a trip!
ReplyDeleteGreat perks for the American Express Platinum Cardholder and it makes travel very nice!
