My ATL to DTW flight is on a 77L and it's mostly empty.
So Im thinking of booking the 25K miles ticket and letting her "oops" miss her connection, and then get rebooked on my flight.
Thoughts???
grab the 25K ticket and call for SDC. If you hit the brickwall, call back and let someone know its your wife and blah blah blah.
Also, try SDC at MSY with the GA or Check-in counter. I have done free SDC and even gotten companion upgrade on an award ticket. Companion was a non-medallion.
God Bless ATL Red coats
customer service desk in ATL has some super-nice agents as well, goodluck!!
