Actually I would like to requet the new Routing Credit. the original Routing Credit is LAS-MSP 1300 Mile, the new Routing credit should be LAS-DTW 1700 Mile.

Actually after a bad night in DTW, I choose a longest route back to MSP which Detla offeres me free. DTW-DAN-MSP (1899Mile). I tried to get max mile to reduce my loss: Hotel cost, Rental Car Cost and Meal cost, miles lost for two MSP flights for Sunday, which I had to cancel because I cannot catch up with them.
