Well, I knew I could save some money by flying NW/KLM to Europe for vacation in February, using miles to upgrade. Not as tight, and less expensive to upgrade than others.
Well, now they are like the other carriers. Moreover, world business class is not on par with the quality of same class of service by other majors. No longer a good value. Saying goodbye to vaction plans on NW and goodbye to NW Wperks.
