DL has some kind of issue going on here... I suspect the best way for them to solve the problem of unsold BE seats is to liberalize the sale fare rules the way CO and others have done. On CO, you do not need to have a 7 day stay, just a Saturday night stay for their BF sale fares.
It's what the competition (still) offers (and what NW used to offer), not divinely written on stone tablets. That's the issue.
