I've never flown Delta Airlines before, but I have an upcoming trip where I had to basically use them to go from JFK-MSP. As this is part of an international journey starting in AUH via Etihad I booked it in first class so I have increased baggage allowance, and comfort. I then found out that...

A lot of you guys probably don't keep up with changes to the Etihad Guest program, but recently they've updated their program and revised mileage costs for upgrades/awards. SYD-LHR used to cost about 60,000 miles one way upgrade, and now it will cost 90,000 miles. A first class award ticket...
