Yes, it was the 5 flight so dinner was chicken or pasta. I did not eat as I was not hungry from partaking in the SC of the food offerings.

I have 4 of them, worthless crap, I will give you one onepass mile for each!

1500+ miles does get choice of hot dinners. I had a decent cold dinner last weekend on the ATL-BOS (just over 900 miles) with a passable sandwich and a great fruit salad.

Why fly 1500 miles when you can hop around DL hub markets for less and get more miles?:p

Well time to head to the plane back to JFK. Oh, the adventure!:D

i just took a dose of nyquil and drank mountain dew, it is a race to see which works first.

somewhat like a Jagerbomb.

If they are worthless crap, then how is it that I have sat in F without status on five of previous 12 CO segments? Three of those five involved upgrading more than one person, too. Some of those tickets were not even revenue tickets. 5 for 12 isn't brag-worthy for a Plat, but it's quite nice for a nobody. Come to think of it, it could have been 6 for 12, but I chose not to burn the certs on a 90-minute hop (mainline CLE-PHL).

If they are close to worthless, might be something to break up among the community for free. Last year, I became icurhere2 Claus on an ATL-LAS flight for New Years, handing out soon-to-expire drink chits. That was the first time FA's let me use the cheap shakers in flight (making Manhattans).

dunno, lucky. These must not be restricted fare class ones? i have some from before I was elite, it was basically a y/b upgrade cert. something I get free for a long time now. I think mine expired, i need to pull that shoebox and make some room.

Ordinarily true but sometimes IRROPS (LAX-ATL) and/or cost (ATL-LAS) require the longer domestic flight segments. And once I clear in F, I'm not too likely to SDC to Y and play the battlefield game.

Nyquil is winning. I guess being up since 5am may have something to do with it.

Nope, no fare class restriction. Do the Chase card ones have fare bucket limitations? If so, it's no wonder that the road warrior bunch think they're worthless.

(The correct answer is that I'm good and not lucky. I travel off-peak when F isn't packed.)

Sounds like it's worth a shot but the more descriptive you could be the better.

I did not get mine from chase, the chase certs are $100 off of certain buckets, really not bad considering Mups :)

Mine came directly from CO after some IRROPs that were really no issue at all (got there sooner).

Every DL flight I've ever flown in F that was long enough for a hot dinner was a choice of the same chicken or pasta. That's over about a five year period, two or three flights a year. It's hardly representative, but it did give me the impression that they have a very limited domestic F menu.

CO still has the overall best domestic F food. I know there are exceptions, but given the overall picture, CO's domestic F food is hard to beat when you look at the competition. NW used to do pretty well too, but since they've been assimilated to become a part of The Awesome™ that is The World's Biggest Airline™, domestic F meal service on NW just isn't what it once was.
