Also, I know NW saved a ton of money canceling 2 of 3 DTW-AMS-DTW flights. Use some of that money to help pay for my hotel rooms. Also, if the deli machine number system worked so well the first time, why get rid of it the second day and force people to spend 4 hours in the line? Lastly, if AMS is where the problem is, when you call NW and push the numbers indicating you already have an international ticket and need a change, don’t hang up on me.
I am not sure about this---- I had a flight from LVG-MNP-AMS-VCE last year that went mechanical in LVG. They put me on Virgin Atlantic to LGW and then BA to VCE- I acutally got home EARLIER than my scheduled flight- and the Upper Class on Virgin puts NW WBC to shame....
