Delta SkyMiles

Fully dynamic pricing and serial devaluations — TPG holds 1.2¢ but the ceiling keeps sinking. No Indian card reaches it; the Accor 2:1 hop is the only real path, and even that is a last resort.

Nerf risk: stable No tracker events on record for this program

Expiry: never — expiration abolished in 2011

Floor = the worst redemption you can always fall back on; ceiling = the best sweet-spot exit. The house value is what a disciplined traveller actually clears.
