It's getting worse ...

I had booked an award trip to Europe this Fall with three people ... on NW. I think you folks know how difficult that can be. Anyhow, I got J over the pond, but could only find Y on the way back.

Like any FlyerTalker worth his salt, I kept checking the website and, sure enough, I spotted availability within a day of when I had scheduled. So, I jumped on the phone ... because I'm a platinum, we found everything smoothly and booked it. All with no change fees or hassle.

Because I'm a Platinum, dammit!

Every time I think I'm out, they pull me back in.
