I hung up, did some research, and called back. I mentioned my problem to the agent. He said he knew exactly what I was talking about and he was able to book the tickets after an hour on the phone.

All in 1.5 hrs to book my delta award tickets. I booked ORD-CPH the same day on UA (J 100K miles) and it took 10 minutes. The longest part was chatting with a friend regarding the routing, and I never had to call anyone.

Call, call back, call back again.
