Prior to the conversion to the NWA FFP, flights segments showed up properly in the SM account. They also showed each segment properly, ie for a RDU - LAX flight connecting in ATL it would show RDU-ATL on one line and ATL-LAX on another line. Each showed a segment.

Since October you now get two lines that just show RDU-LAX as if you never went through a connection, and in the table it only shows 1 segment or no segments but your segment count at the top of the page jumps by 1 for each individual segment.

This is a nuance of using the NWA FFP backend system but the DL front end web page.

EDIT - I have also noticed that ATL - DEN used to be 1199 miles but now consistently is 1208 miles. Hmmmm.
