These are for several months out, if that makes any difference.

I had a really good, pleasant rep the last go around. It appears she did need to call to confirm availability while i was on the phone with her, if I understood her right.

Trying to decide if I should transfer amex mr to vs as well with the bonus. Being in msp, these Delta flights are so much better than AA or United, so these vs miles are terrific.
Yes, lowest award levels. RSW to ANC 300 days out and tried again at around 270 days out. We fly 5 on that route every year connecting through MSP or ATL using Delta miles without a problem. I took advantage of the bonus offer with Virgin Atlantic and ended up having to use AA miles this year and will be flying American metal up and back.
