DM reality
Most DMs, even us hub captives, have multiple status. In my case also with *A. Since I blow enough with DL, I'll do more with OA where flexibility helps, as the new change rules make anything but full fare a painful discussion with back office on the fees - eliminating the adv DL had before. Corporate behavior is the same everywhere (maybe unless you fly free) on such matters, even for salesmen like us.
