I'm booked JFK-IST on 11/10 returning on 11/14 so when should we expect to hear something from Delta assuming that the rumors are true.

The rumors are true, but your dates are safe. The nonstops end November 17/18.

They said they did not know when it was going to be "officially" announced as she still see the seats as zeroed out, which she kept referring to as sold out.

I have heard from a friend of mine who is a frequent traveler on this route and has inside contacts at DL and he was told that they are going seasonal for six months, but then it should be back to normal.

Well..if I was going to give up a route that gives you 10k MQM a pop, then it'd have to be with a change in loyalty over to *.
That's definitely not a no-brainer, unless you like flying 75s and 74s across the ocean all the time.

My reservation still shows the IST-JFK flight. Not sure what's taking so long to update the itinerary and show me different rerouting options on other carriers.

mine has not either

I have JFK - IST flight 10/31 and return 11/7 and it still shows nonstop.
Return looks pretty empty from seat chart. |
I called back today to have them change my itinerary. While I am not thrilled about it they also changed my originating city which means I don't need to ORD to fly out. Even though I get in later, I can shower at AMS. I had to remind myself this was a cheap MQM run and I didn't want to give those up. The going price for my new ticket was $1200, I paid 383.

Well, I tried again to change my Jan reservation with the DM line, and after 30 minutes of "researching", the supervisor "confirmed" that the IST-JFK flight is still flying in early January. It's just full! They all are!:mad::mad:
Short of calling again for a third time, any ideas for what I can do besides just waiting around for the yellow screen message at delta.com on my rez? |

We are better informed than the consumer reps, but the consumer reps refuse to believe that and go by what the screen in front feeds them. As a consequence, our "superior knowledge" yields nothing but frustration ;) |
