Majority of our DL travel (wife MM/PM) originates and ends RSW/ATL or ATL/RSW . Mileage credited by DL is 515 base miles . The 800 mile segment is now being de-valued to a 500 mile segment. Under the new changes - we will need 2 segments to upgrade each way RSW/ATL/RSW! As we are both PM - will only receive 20 segment upgrades 1/04 - any policy to "stretch" the 500 mile criteria an extra 15 miles for those like us? If there is no flexibility by DL - it will make our decision much easier as to where we move our extensive revenue/business beginning in 2003. </font>
Hey, Tucson to DFW is about 807 miles... back in the paper 800 MSU days (and mainline service), the counter agents would often wink and take one certificate. With electronic MSUs, there could be no leeway, and I suspect strongly that it will be the case with the new 500 MSUs.
