Okay, I just checked availability NW for an award ticket. The good news is that NW has seats.

The bad news is that we all now have to pay $10 for a ticket that used to cost only miles.

Do non-revs also get this surcharge?

It seems to me that if it's applicable to award tickets, everyone that is going into an airport (who isn't working) should have to pay the same for the under skilled, over zealous, poorly paid, improperly trained Argenbright fellas to feel us up and take away our tweezers and corkscrews.
