Updated Delta Award Travel Blackout Dates (KE, CI, AE) for 2013
Kudos to RealHJ for making the 2012 thread, linked here.
KE (Korean Air) 07 Dec 12 to 06 Jan 13 07 Feb 13 to 12 Feb 13 01 Mar 13 to 03 Mar 13 17 May 13 to 30 Jun 13 19 Jul 13 to 25 Aug 13 14 Sep 13 to 23 Sep 13 03 Oct 13 05 Oct 13 to 06 Oct 13 07 Dec 13 to 31 Dec 13 CI (China Airlines) and AE (Mandarin Airlines) 10 Dec 12 to 31 Dec 12 01 Jan 13 to 04 Jan 13 01 Jun 13 to 31 Aug 13 10 Dec 13 to 31 Dec 13 |
Any info on MU?
|
MU doesn't have blackout dates anymore.
|
In the summer MU availability is not necessarily every day, but you can get 33E business seats (the nice truly 180 degree flat ones) on many peak summer travel dates.
|
Are those blackout dates for any routing? For example, for KE is it for intra Asia awards as well, or only to/from US?
|
DL's policy is to black out all KE routes if any KE route is at peak rates for SkyPass members on that day. This may not always be properly implemented on DL.dumb, but phone agents impose the blackout pretty reliably.

CI/AE have not been posted yet, but KE's are:
07DEC 13 THROUGH 05JAN 14 29JAN 14 THROUGH 03FEB 14 03MAY 14 THROUGH 06MAY 14 16MAY 14 THROUGH 01JUL 14 18JUL 14 THROUGH 24AUG 14 05SEP 14 THROUGH 10SEP 14 03OCT 14 THROUGH 05OCT 14 09OCT 14 11OCT 14 THROUGH 12OCT 14 10DEC 14 THROUGH 31DEC 14 The easiest way to check KE is honestly to just go to the SkyPass page that lists the peak dates. If your desired date is a peak date for SkyPass on any route, DL will consider it a blackout date for all routes. CZ and MU no longer have blackout dates (although of course they may have little to no availability on certain dates as determined by revenue management). |

Is EF still the best method to search for CZ and MU availability? 2. I assume that if I am able to find availability on CZ/MU then I will need to call DL directly to book? IIRC, dl.com award calendar still doesn't display CZ/MU inventory? |
