If you aren't like me and don't enjoy playing with the award calendar on dl.com, calling an agent is worth the small $$ to find the cheaper stuff. Oh yeah, I'm flying upstairs on this trip too

Good tip! + you can get the DL agent to give you the flt#'s/dates then drop the call (like it happens to us all the time) and then go on-line and book yourself.
