Saved Reservation Page Changes

I was checking in online this morning and noticed that the saved reservations page has been “enhanced.” The right most column now lists “OnePass/Elite Miles” thereby indicating the amount of miles flown per segment along with the percentage of EQM’s earned per segment based on fare class. Another new enhancement indicates whether special meal options are available for that segment.

Just thought I’d pass on the observation, and thank you fellow FT’ers for being an extraordinarily helpful resource for just about every travel question I’ve ever had!

Unfortunately it's broke...I know that's a big shock to most people but here's what I noticed last evening.

I booked a CO ticket (all NW operated flights ) with Q & S fares...when I imported it into CO.com it said I'd earn 100% EQM's and 1 segment per flight...now we all know that would be true if I was able to book the reservation via co.com but unfortunately I couldn't get it to price correctly so it was booked via orbitz.com...if I really wanted to keep my OP elite status I would have printed the page but and would argue their website said I'd earn the points/miles but I'm doing the FF# hokey pokey and working on WP Elite next year so it doesn't matter to me

I think they've covered themselves. Did you note the asterisk at the end of the column header? When you click on the header you get taken to a page that tells you you only get 100% if you purchase on CO.com.

Technically yes...but why show the info if it's always going to give the same info regardless if it's correct or not? Seems pretty useless

Looks like they have also added a link from this page to "Check Flight Status" when your flight gets close. That's kind of handy.

I thought the the "Department of Enhancement" was able to do away with the Marketing Dept that originally came up with the OP program as they felt they were giving away free toppings on the pizza
