Effective January 27, 2012, Delta can book Systemwide Upgrades (SWU) on select Alitalia (AZ) flights for service beginning in May 2012. SkyMiles members will now have the option to redeem SWUs for a one class upgrade on select AZ flights operating to and from Rome (FCO) and three U.S. cities- BOS, ORD and LAX.
*SWU bookings on AZ flights must be completed at least 3 days prior to departure. No waitlisting or standby upgrades will be permitted.
*Only Y, B and M classes of service are eligible to be upgraded to the business award/upgrade fare class – Z. (Award code: PU503)
*SWUs are valid for a one-way/one class upgrade.
*SWUs on AZ operated flights are valid only for transatlantic travel on select flights to/from North America and FCO.
*AZ operated flights beyond FCO (i.e. to/from other European destinations, Middle East, Africa and the Pacific) are not eligible to be upgraded using a SWU.
*No Award seat upgrades will be permitted.
