There's a main thread about this. Search for FCM. Basically the system offers at random, and the prices are random. One time you could get really cheap, the next time really expensive, etc.

Also is dependent on being a ticket purchased directly from DL. TA, OTA, Corporate tickets, etc don't get them since requires a ticket reissue.
