You bring up another intriguing issue!!!

Using DL and Skyteam as an example. If all of the DL FFP award seats are sold out, why doesn't DL tell us WHICH partners have HOW MANY award seats allocated, but unredeemed on a given flight.

Even that tidbit of information would go a long way. If I knew that there were 2 award seats allocated, but unredeemed by NW on a DL flight, I could contact my NW friends for a trade (or um, a gift!!).

Randy, is it unreasonable for the FFPs to to provide such TRANSPARENCY about partner award allocations????
