Does anyone know if NWA plans to change the flight search engine on their website? I know today it's "Powered by Orbitz".

I really can't stand the thing. It's awful. The part that aggrevates me the most is that stupid message, "Sorry, the search engine is still busy processing your previous request. Please wait a minute and try your request again." UGH!!!!!

But worse, the search engine will sometimes return the ubiquitous error message like the following:
No Northwest Airlines, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, or codeshare partner flights were found between Brussels, Belgium (BRU) and Seattle, WA (SEA) that matched your request. Check our service destinations and routes.

Now that's a complete lie. I bought a ticket on their website between the same cities and if I search by schedule, it works perfectly fine. (And yes, I've modified the search to include anytime, morning, afternoon or evening flights).

Take a combo of the above two (search BRU-SEA, get the error page and then try to search AMS-SEA and get the warning that the engine is still processing your previous request) and you have one annoyed website user.

I can't wait for the day that NW changes their flight search engine...
