Since it’s still the end of the year if I were you I would wait till they come to you.

You can try checking the jet booking engine and see what appears in the lowest category column on the left. Its still a risk though if they can find the same thing for you to replace.

Its a risk either way. Now I am putting the mindset of playing the stock market game and I just lose by shorting. Life moves on from here. Making other plans.
Why you believe my KLM is safe? What’s the logic behind this, because apparently that’s the common consensus on the forum?

I am doing a multi-city itinerary in December, and DL is my 2nd last flight back home, so it is very important. Interesting thing to note about my DL award though is that I can see the last 4 digits of my credit card on the booking, which I used to pay taxes to Jet Privilege. Not sure if this is any sort of hint that my ticket would be honoured by DL. I can always show them the credit card at the time of check-in, if required.

On your advice, I checked Jet Privilege’s booking engine. Here are the results

1. LHR - MEX:

Current Award Booking: KLM B747 Business Class (Was very excited to fly Queen of the Skies on top deck, which is pretty much the reason I chose KL over other airlines on this route)

Jet Engine: The only offering on this route in Business Class is Avianca. Not very keen on flying them.

2. GRU - JFK:

Current Award Booking: Delta One

Jet Engine: No flight options are available on this route on the Jet Engine.

What would be your advice now?
