So, are you going to refuse the 25000 miles or $200.00 which was offered?
Just curious.
The scrip in question is the stock NW "we're sorry" certificate they usually use in J. For instance a malfunctioning J seat IFE would get the same certificate (I've cashed a lot of them over the years.) There's a smaller certificate they typically give to Y pax, but this is a pretty long delay. There's a chance that NW might do an automatic MX sweep in a couple days and post even more miles to the OP.
NW has a history of being quite generous with the miles when there are MX situations. I don't think DL is nearly as generous when it comes to making things right. On the other hand DL has far more promotions and opportunities to earn bonus miles. Bit of a head scratcher really.
