Upgrade question
Apologies, I suspect this is a silly question, but I still haven't got my head around the NW-DL merger very well.
I'm wanting to fly MAN-CRW on an M fare to upgrade to BE. As per the usual upward trend with M fares, the more direct MAN-ATL-CRW prices out at Ł1600. But, if I go MAN-AMS-DTW-CRW on the way there, it comes down to a more civilised Ł1200.
AMS-DTW is on NW243. Can I upgrade that using my DL miles? If so, what fare bucket I am looking for within J? Having checked expertflyer, it seems unable to even find NW243 on the day I want to fly (25th Nov.)
Thanks.

you may want to try and see if NW 43 comes up. I know delta is changing some of the NW flight numbers but they don't seem to be flowing through. I have a flight in April that shows the "new" numbers but when I look the flight up on KLM (which I am on for one segment), it still shows the "old" NW flight numbers.
