If you hadn't gone indirectly, you wouldn't be allowed on FT!

I flew up to SEA for the inaugural MAX flight on March 1st & flew the 1st and 4th flight. I had SEA-BNA booked in F for $100 for March 2nd and I also had AA 77W J LAX-MIA flight booked for March 3rd from a prior award. Some were orphaned on other changes. I didn't want to give up SEA-BNA in F. Ultimately, I bought a BNA-SEA-LAX routing, also on March 2nd to tie them all up. The resulting itinerary was.

March 1: SEA-SAN-SFO-LAX-SEA
March 2: SEA-BNA-SEA-LAX
March 3: LAX-MIA-LAX
March 4: LAX-SEA-PHX

Spread over 4 days it was quite leisurely. No regrets. I was back in BNA 4 days later and spent a few nigfes.
