Not sure if that is true. I was a NWA Flyer from DTW. YEsterday I purchaed to award tickets business class to europe for 100K each.( Plus $212 for taxes etc) NWA did not even come cost to that. NWA wanted 200K each. Redemming World Perks/Sky Miles for 3.5 cents per mile (BE to Europe apprx $3500 straight up) that is better than I ever got from NWA.

This from the folks that repeatedly said W upgrades on DL metal were going to start in May....I don't recall a year being stated but most DL Elites believed they meant 2009 since the press release came out in the first quarter of 2009 but perhaps they meant 2012.....but then it is becoming increasingly difficult to find quality Vic-20 programmers these days
