Question when does DL go back and offer FCM for trips booked way out? It is a B fare so FCM was not that much more than the cost of the trip.

I generally never book work trips this far out.

Thanks
I don't know for sure, but they may be targeted. We know that if you book via a TA, you don't get an offer. If it's a B fare, why not just call to upfare into F? (I'm assuming it's refundable/changeable)
