You can always open another account  ;) and why book a 350k ticket?

Read the link. Limit is also to number of miles you can transfer out of MR account to delta in total
Life isn't about checking the boxes. Nobody cares.

It's possible (see @Dan), but not simple.

Anyone can request multiple MR accounts.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

I would think this is targeting brokers, not your average Joe.

Delta claims this to get more availability in low level but they don't realize  if its low level its can be booked with FB etc.
