Salt Lake City, UT (SLC) 10:15am x Sep 2005
Delta 377 First (G)
Los Angeles, CA (LAX) 9:15am x Sep 2005
Note that the outbound leg is (Z) Business! But when I click on the type of aircraft on DL.com, it claims the plane is a 738!!! Isn't that a single class (coach) DL shuttle aircraft??? The rep was emphatic that it has business class, to which I said - that's funny, first 737 i've ever seen/heard of with business elite seats. I think its a typo - it's either a shuttle plane, or the plane type is wrong and should be a 767..
What do you folks think?
Glad this worked out. It's important to remember that for domestic travel, the fare class can be as low as K, but be sure to pick a refundable fare for "parking." SLC is definitely the spot with the lowest refundable fares.
The 738 could have a connection to/from Mexico, which would make the service "business class," without being B/E seats.
