Last night I began choosing my seating assignments on my three November itineraries. This morning I logged onto NWA.com to confirm my choices when I discovered that the schedule had been updated. And the changes were pretty drastic -- only a one flight didn’t receive a time and/or equipment change.

On the lighter side, I will have traveled 1M miles by November -- all without flying on a RJ. I was expecting to take my first five RJ flights, four Avros and a CRJ, but the equipment has changed to two DC-9-30s, two DC-9-10s and a 727.

I’m surprised by the changes but expect things to be set… only minor changes are made within the 90-day window and usually they’re made in days or weeks advance, but the passenger won’t find out until an hour or two before his/her flight takes off!

EDITED TO ADD: Actually, my September itineraries have experienced similiar changes as well.
