OK, let me break it down right quick. And I hope I'm right.
There seems to me that there are a couple of ways to redeem int'l award travel.
1. Delta flights and codeshares.
2. Partners (i.e. SQ)
OK, so previously, we all called the DL desk and asked them to book the award for us, and we could change our seats online for DL8xxx flights, etc. etc.
BUT... under this new rule, AF award tickets will have to be issued just like a SQ award would, using a partner award. So we won't be able to view the seats online, etc. etc.
Am I right? I feel like I reiterated what the other Jeff said.
Doesn't make a huge difference, just as long as the award levels haven't changed.
Although I do question why.
Hope that makes sense.
