I wanted to "BUMP" this thread on the BUMP Program to see if any FTers have had any recent experiences with it? Is the BUMP Program still around?

I am flying on someone else's dime this week MEM-DCA and back and would love to be able to fly on a NW nonstop (and earn NW EQMs) rather than taking connecting flights on a carrier on which I don't earn many miles.

My last experience using the bump program was successful (switching from DL to NW), but that was roughly two years ago. I'd love to hear of any problems or successes anyone has had recently (particularly if you've tried it with NW agents at either MEM or DCA).
