flying with Delta: enroll in their SkyMiles program, or something else?

[Drew]

Here's a great forum for all things related to frequent flyer mileage and other stuff. I am a part of Northwest Airlines WorldPerks (also a part of SkyTeam) and the forum members have been incredibly helpful with things like bonus miles, good seats, routing, etc. etc. I would suppose that the Delta forum is similar:

They also have good forums for traveling to specific destinations. Go to the top and find the forum that fits what you need.
