Log on to my computer, Delta let's me log into this other account number. Sure enough, there is an account with my name on it with 20k miles in it! So of course I merged it into my main account.

My best guess is I took a JNB flight on Northwest back in '06, that's probably what it was. I had no idea it was out there. I am working on 2 RTW tickets in F so every little bit helps, especially when it is free!

Thanks for letting me share here. The woman would role her eyes. No one else would get it.
I'm shocked that the miles didn't disappear during the period when Delta expired a lot of miles. Hopefully you can make the RTW tickets happen!
