(The LAS-TLV return is at the "Medium" rate.)
There is no way in heck I am changing them.
On top of that, I have a week's stay at the Planet Hollywood in Vegas during which 5 nights are comped and the remaining two given at a very reduced price.
Feel free to make as many major schedule changes as you want, as long as everything remains available between my above-mentioned arrival and departure.
Anything outside of those dates would have to involve FAs of my choice and activities which would get me banned both from FT and Delta if I were to discuss them here.

I am arriving from TLV on the morning of Oct 19. I am flying to LAS on Oct 25, again, in the morning. The TLV-ATL-LAS segments (in Biz Elite and FC) are award tickets at the "Low" rate. Indeed, they are probably the only "Low" tickets on this route until April, 2037.

Maybe that's the surprise - no more 50 seat CRJs - flying the CRJ is now going to be comfortable in a VIP configuration with all the free Woodford you can drink!

(Unless of course getting to race the jet-bridges is ACTUALLY a possibility!)

Maybe they are bringing in some people who know how to entertain FlyerTalkers -- I've never had so much to drink before 9 a.m. ... and between 4000 and 10000 feet, give or take a couple thousand.
This was just a mundane party flight. The second group got to experience the 757-200's potential for vertical takeoff.

Oh... you are such a teaser Canarsie. I will say this - it wasn't OUR idea, the incredible team at Delta pulled this together themselves, and I think they are even more excited about it than we are... OK, maybe just as excited as we are!
Guess everyone will just have to wait until next week:
