love the prestige pack!!

I just completed a trip and used the companion fare for a coach flight. Saved $300 due to the lateness of the booking so that minus the $135 it cost plus the $100 off on the fare to Europe I'm booking next week made it a good deal. Plus both of us got the appropriate miles credited for the flight. I was waiting to see that before I bought the second Prestige pack to use later (of course that was not bought by me but by my SO for use later).

the $99 certs are pretty sweet. my brother got miles on his DL account, and got up'd with me as a comp on all four segments. i get them every year. im not sure if ill be able to use this year's. but i still get my money's worth with the $100 off cert and the mileage award.

$100 coupon use advice?

Question about the $100 coupons (privpack and Chase) before I call and get my account flagged --

I am looking at a route where one-way F fares are exactly half of the roundtrip F fares. Is there anything that prevents me (because I have so many of these coupons around, and this is one of the few times I'll not be flying on a QSTL) from booking it as two one-way tickets and using two coupons, saving an extra $100 off buying it r/t?

Yes, you are permitted to use your Privilege Pack dollars-off coupon on a roundtrip where two or more one-way fares are combined (including First/BusinessFirst class fares). There are a couple important terms to remember when doing this:
- Travel must be roundtrip, and include a Saturday night stay, even if the fare you're on doesn't require it
- If the fare you're on is refundable, you may still get a refund for the amount you paid, but you won't be eligible to get your coupon back
Hope this helps.

Wondering

Just wondering if the pack orders have gone up since the (non) announcement of the discontinuance?

Maybe with some well placed messages/emails it will make a come back ( I hope)

I ordered my Prestige Pass this morning and the 7,500 miles posted immediately. I can't wait to receive the packet in the mail and use the coupons. Thanks for keeping this thread alive and letting everyone know the great value the PP is.
