Punish you Delta, DIAF!

I'm always quick, profile information is saved, and yes I was signed in but goddamnit! This hasn't happened too much since I can remember.

"Fare Change
The fare quoted earlier of $338.40 (USD) has changed. The new fare for this itinerary is $438.40 (USD). To continue your purchase click Continue. Otherwise click Start Over to return to the Reservations input screen and select different dates and times."

Ok, I go back and pick a new fare that is $375 with different routing...Guess what your fare has changed to $431.

Ok, I got back and search Delta.com again and I pick a different routing, Q bucket tickets. WAS-BOS for $408 and I go to purchase again and I get yet another thing saying your fare has changed to $491......., really.

I gave up after 3 tries since it was quite obvious that Delta changes inventory faster than I can put the 4 numbers in from my AMEX which is programmed in my head. I ended up calling the Diamond desk. Lady finds me a $375 flight, IAD-DTW-BOS-DCA. She goes to ticket me and says whoops the fare changed to $575....I'm so, so, soooo frustrated right now. I've purchased more tickets online than I can count and I never had this happen to me.

I was willing to pay and fly with you Delta but you effed with my emotions...you give me insufficient routing at awful times all while switching the price up. Now I'm flying the competition. USless Airways, they don't seem so useless right now. DCA-BOS nonstop, great timing, $356 all in. Peace.

*P.S. those of you that want to say more ugprades for me. DCA-JFK-BOS or DCA-BOS = no upgrades even available on the barbie jets.
