Why can’t business class award seats be booked on Delta.com for Air France flights?

*sigh* I wish I could say more than "I'm sorry" folks, still no word what is going on (which is unusual in and of itself). It's not that I don't want to sell you a ticket using miles, I assure you.
I do 'check in' every day to see if there's been word, and will keep you as updated as I can.

My response from DL regarding this concern. Really? Try another computer? No other reports? Scary stuff...

Clearly some staff are not reading their memos. The @DeltaAssist agent I communicated with this morning was very enthusiastic about getting something up on DL.dumb indicating that this is a known problem, even if they can't post an estimated repair time. Hopefully he/she can convince someone to do it.

Oh I hope so - even if it's 'we don't have a fix ETA yet'...
I make it a point to let them know every time I see a glitch, or perceive one - if they system isn't working, I can't do my job effectively.

For a really fun time, ask the DL customer service machine about the meaning of your favorite provision in the CoC. I've got a whole stack of them, including one assuring me that I can get a full refund on any ticket at any time for any reason regardless of the fare rules.

Really, teasing and throwing rocks at front line res doesn't do anyone any good, and might get you re-routed to AUH via BOM with a 30 minute connection on your way to ATL from JFK...
Yeah, I went there!
PS - and the mileage credit would ONLY be from SAV to ATL, just to spice it up.

One agent did it for me once but in a different situation where O had already been processed but a schedule change had made the itinerary impossible.

So in the meantime, could you comment on the possibility for agents to re-book me on DL metal, opening Z where it's not necessarily available, if I were to call and asking for O upgrade of my W ticket, knowing that O just opened but DL cannot see/use it?
