But I'm with you: thanks for the cheap F ticket!!! Beats the uncertainty of UGs.

They are also arguing out of both sides of their mouths. On one side...."we can't buy it because it is first class"

on the other side"

"during IROPS, the booking code is actually H (or whatever) and we won't get F if we pay for it".

It is insanity. You will see that there are well-known antagonists on here and cheapskates that won't pay for what they desire. They think through jaded and mysterious posts on here of how much travel budget they control, DL will read these posts and change their policies.

P fares are what I've been waiting for in my "home" flight of DTW-LAX. It is a Godsend and has increased (significantly) my spend with DL.
