Delta makes it easier to track Medals status progress with new account dashboard
Delta Airlines rolling out a new elite status dashboard to help member medals track their progress.
The new tracking tool provides a centralized portal where elite members can view their past and future accumulated flights for Medal and qualifying miles. dollars qualified for medals. Additionally, you can find your unused beverage vouchers, certificates and E-Credits in the dashboard.
Currently, two TPG employees with Diamond Medal status see the dashboard, while the other members do not. We hope this will roll out to all members in the coming days.
Let’s take a look at some of the dashboard’s features.
Accumulate future flights
This one is new for Delta. Medallion elite members can see their future cumulative flights in the new dashboard. Historically, this was a feature United MileagePlus provided in its Premier tracker – but United’s future flight trackers are known to be often inaccurate.
While we haven’t had a chance to test Delta’s accuracy yet, the feature can certainly help elite members with state planning.

Note that if you purchased your ticket from a platform outside of Delta (ie Sky group partner ticket you are crediting to mile sky), don’t expect to see flight accruals in upcoming flight accruals.

A centralized platform for benefits and certificates
Delta is also offering its Medallion elite members a new dashboard that highlights key features of your Medals status. Medallion members can also view their drink vouchers, certificates and e-Credits on this screen. Just be aware that Delta is still showing some recently expired certificates and vouchers in this screen, which may increase the number for some members.

bottom line
Delta’s new elite status dashboard makes it easier for Medallion members to track their progress by showing future flight accruals. This will make it easier for Delta elite members to see where they stand in the next year’s elite progression. Plus, it offers a single storefront to view certificates, e-credits, and beverage offers.
For now, this dashboard is only visible to some SkyMiles members, but we expect Delta to expand access to other Medallion elite members in the coming days.
