I checked my itinerary for this week, and Delta.dumber.than.ever shows one segment had been cancelled. I called SMS and was told that, no, the flight was still operating.

At the same time, Delta.dumber.than.dirt is showing that segment, for which I am still awaiting an upgrade, as having no FC seats left available... Meanwhile EF shows 5 seats available (later confirmed by SMS).

BTW... the SMS agent stated that their call volume, and frustrations, have rocketed over the last few days.

I'll ignore the issue of why a PM can't score an upgrade on a mid-day flight on a Wednesday on a DC-9 between DTW and ORD and ask the more pertinent question:

DL Management... you expect us to trust that you are capable of safely transporting us long distances at 30,000 feet above the ground. Yet, you can't demonstrate the ability to maintain a computer program. What's wrong with this picture?

My MSP-AMS return leg that went berserk is acting normal again. Seats are again available on the website.

DTW-ORD and ORD-DTW have not been doing advance upgrades for about a year if not longer now. This is FCM

Thanx for confirming what I speculated on earlier.

As I look at today's DTW/ORD flights, L coach is selling for $151 and A/F for $210. I assume that it's worth if for some, to pay $59 extra to not sit in a middle seat, and will also recoup some of that with Woodford, not to mention the deluxe snack basket!

A little weird that The 7:35 PM flight is $394 for M coach, but $366 for P/F!

Remember that A P F fares get 150% MQM (and an additional 50% redeemable miles, plus whatever elite bonuses), so 250 more miles. The same is true for Y and B fares.
