Sweet that Delta keeps the promise of introducing free upgrade on reward tickets on international flights. I was just not expecting as it was vaguely written on Delta web site about its timeline to "sometime in summer" for this kind of upgrade to be taken place.
And it only cost me 60,000 for the whole roundtrip to Asia from North America.^
Free upgrades to BE on award tix? That is a new one on me. Where is the press release on this?
