Rollover Miles Coming to Delta

Your phone company might already be letting you rollover your unused minutes but until a recent announcement by Delta, no airline carrier has permitted anything similar. As part of the new SkyMiles Medallian program (launching in 2010 after the Delta-Northwest merger is complete), miles earned in excess of a status level can be carried over to the next year.  Sure, it might just be a bid to retain loyal business travelers during volatile times for the airlines, but anything that will get me to the next status level faster is a good idea in my book. There are lots more changes coming with the new Medallian program - check out all the details here.
