Finding Dl.com fare on nwa.com
I'm trying to book a trip home for fall break. I have $900 in bump vouchers on NWA, so I need to use nwa.com to use them. However, the flights on nwa.com are about $100 more expensive than on dl.com. I've tried the multi-leg search function, but even when I find the same flights, nwa.com wants to put me in a higher fare bucket. Do I just keep trying to work the nwa.com system, or is it entirely possible that I'll never find the same fare on nwa.com?
Thanks!
Thanks!

It's entirely possible you never find the same fare on nwa.com.
It's also entirely possible nwa.com winds up cheaper than delta.com in the future as DL starts selling seats in a higher fare bucket but nwa sells them in a lower bucket.
BTW, I believe calling NW will help you here. They should be allowed to sell you an entirely DL-operated, DL-coded ticket and allow you to apply your NW vouchers.
NW can't do that with CO but they should be able to with DL.
