how many times do we make fun of people around here for asking the day a promotion ends where all their miles are? or how many pages are there in the vendor promotion thread talking about average delays (2-6 weeks) for posting of miles earned through vendors?? if he's a primarily AA flyer the same process works over there, too.
hell, i'm in the middle of closing on a condo and it took me two weeks to move all my equity into my checking account for closing. and thats ALL MY MONEY - not me trying to trade a shoe in for cash and whining about how the cash isn't immediately in my hands.
i, too, don't follow how the op's procrastination is delta's fault. but great - please take that attitude (along with the one from your family) and keep it on AA - that's pretty much the attitude I saw there when I flew them. And why my subsequent flights were canceled with them and added back into my DL queue.
I never said anything was Delta's fault. The issue I have here in this instance is with a certain crowd that automatically jumps on anyone who criticizes Delta. Delta actually gave him an opportunity to provide documentation.
"Keep it on AA"? This is sounding like an echo of the AA forum itself. These forums are for discussions of the airlines & their programs, not to tell others where to stay or where they belong.
