In case you missed the news, here's a reminder that Lyft is ending its partnership with Delta on April 7th. Dollars spent on Uber rides will henceforth be able to earn Delta SkyMiles. Lyft will continue to partner with Hilton offering hotel points for dollars spent on rides. They also have partnerships with Alaska Airlines and Bilt Rewards, which I assume they are keeping.
For a while I've had it set so that my Lyft account fed Delta and Uber fed into Marriott Bonvoy. The latter has been a good deal as I almost always book Uber Comfort (or above) and that gets triple Bonvoy points for every dollar spent. However, double SkyMiles per dollar on Uber Comfort is tempting if you frequently fly on Delta (the Points Guy is currently valuing Delta points at 1.2¢ and Marriott Bonvoy points at .7¢).
On a personal note vis a vis Uber: what I am sure of is that despite their pushing of Waymo, I will be sticking with human driven cars.
