My longest CRJ flight that I take, IND-ATL, is being replaced by mainline with the overhaul. Unfortunately, ASA is picking up some of the flights from Comair IND-CVG. Fortunately, I have been starting in CVG more.
For whatever reason, NW has decided to begin DFW-IND service and CO will fly DFW-Gunnison (Crested Butte). These start when DL leaves.
I flew NW DFW-MEM-LAX yesterday, and while I ended up using an upgrade cert to get out of coach, I was initially able to select exit row seats for both flights - worth noting they were completely empty.
I put my NW # in Travelocity when I made the reservation, logged on to nwa.com with it, then changed it to my DL number, and was able to select both "Elite" seats and exit rows. This was more than 24 hours before the flight.
