to me, it seems that perk choice is being *enhanced* with pay will miles.
Jeff Robertson mentioned at the Delta DO back in June that they really like the PerkChoice option and do plan on bringing it back - it's just another one of those Delta technology issues where the antiquated DL computer system can't handle PerkChoice (or award upgrades, or Alaska upgrades, etc.) at this time without getting some massive code added to it to handle it.
