I am on a Saver F flight ANC-SEA-CDG later tonight. This was the only itinerary I could find with F on all of the AS flights and J on AF, so I am looking forward to the trip.
I have a former son-in-law that lives in Grosse Point. It is a very nice neighborhood. The city itself is past sketchy and I was told to avoid it. The Ford Rouge plant and lots of other stuff make the surrounding area worth the visit.

Did this flight yesterday DTW-SEA, flight was 100% full with no empty seats 
Flight crew and Cabin crew were outstanding, food was great, service with the 3-course meal and warm nuts all pretty fantastic up in the F cabin.
PDB was offered including White and Red wine, Alaskan Amber, and water. PDB top ups were offered! No pillows or blankets were available, I think that's only for true transcons?
Is the DEQM still running for NEW tickets purchased? I thought they had to be booked in a certain window?

Do AS FAs ever turn around and work the return flight on trans cons or would that put them over the max. flying time?

Seems like there are plenty that are excited to be going there. As time goes on, and the newness wears off, it probably won't be as popular as Hawaii but won't be one of the less popular layovers either.

In the original DEQM offer, registration had to occur by July 15.
They brought it back without a registration deadline, other than "register before you fly."

I'm only going 3 times so far, but trying to work in a 4th.
I have a sister near DTW, and am still trying to decide whether or not to tell her about the runs. "BTW, I'm flying across the country to your city 4 times in the next 30 days, but I don't have time to meet up with you, sorry."
