You posted as though you HAVE the facts about what Delta is doing...now, I'm disappointed.

I see that you've answered your own question...because the drumbeat of posts becomes long in the tooth on both sides of the debate. Seems much more manageable to me to have one thread for successes and one for failures. Or are you actually suggesting that a new thread should be started every time someone redeems a SkySaver or fails to find one?
