I once flew from LGA to MCI on a CR7. According to the pilot, there was a mechanical issue with the CR7s during this time frame which required a re-fueling stop in PIT. I looked at the flight history for the last week and all flights had done this. Upon landing in PIT to re-fuel, we were delayed for 3 hours due to weather. I would have SDC'ed onto another flight routing (through ATL, DTW, or MSP) if I would have known about the issue prior to take-off. In my complaint e-mail, I argued that I should get mileage credit for both segments. The agent in the response said that she couldn't program the route as LGA-PIT-MCI, but she would give me 500 MQMs for the trouble (which was in addition to the $150 e-voucher the FA gave on the plane).
