I don't think it's that. DL recognized NW's systems were better. I think that's why the took Theresa Wise from NW to be the head of IT for all of DL. Then I think she/they realized that porting what DL had over to NW's systems was too expensive and couldn't be done in time to hit the merger milestones.

I still do find it amazing, however, that I still cannot do on DL's website what I could do on NW's in 2003. That is amazing. I hope in time Theresa fixes that.
