Some highlights (from memory, none of these are actual quotes):
- There will be no starnet blocking, award levels will be set at a realistic level so that no blocking is needed
- There will be access to F awards on * airlines (again hints that levels will be high)
- SWUs are being reconsidered in light of partnership with UA, one issue is that offering them for only the highest fares (like DL) may frustrate customers but offering them on most fares (like UA) would hurt premium yields
- Can't give any info on reciprocal agreements with UA re. upgrades on CO, E+ on UA, etc, in some cases can't even be negotiated yet, will be a graduate process after October 25.
You forgot to mention the white van in Hoboken, that is where the focus groups test the new meals at mealtime
