you snooze you lose...

I wonder how they decide to stop promos like this... is it time based or quantity based like total volume of business sold like $100,000 worth of cheap tix...
yeah, gone now.
oh well, PIT is too far for me anyways..

Yes it's gone, just happened about 10 minutes ago. Went in to purchase it and prices came up but when I tried to purchase the dreaded prices have changed came up.

Thanks Adam I was out of town for 4 days or I would have had it

I am glad I got 5

Being based in PIT, it is about time we got a bone.

Doing 3x SFO and 2x LAX. All Saturday turns, so I don't have to worry about using up a vacation day. Both LAX turns are 12 hours, so I'll get to enjoy my former hometown a bit before going back to the PIT.

I know, fat chance, but I hope at least one of the upgrade on one of the 8 JFK transcons I am doing will clear...

I've only done a reroute SDC once and I think the agent bent the rules for me. I was flying on an 11AM SFO-JFK direct, and saw that there was a 8AM SFO-LAX. I was hoping to reroute the flight to go to LA for a few hours and grab lunch with my parents. I called at 5AM, and successfully changed it to SFO-LAX-JFK with a 6-hr layover (returning flight to NYC on the 4PM direct). I've SDC'd to earlier flights many times though just by asking the gate agent for the flight I want nicely.

I moved to PIT in Feb, so the bonus EQMs from all of the airlines did not apply to me

Surely got attention from TPG/RM but I think it was a mistake fare that would have been caught soon enough.

I am glad I stayed up to 1:30am PDT for this. I was able to book into April and May for a couple of weekend runs. With it being so far out, I look forward to schedule changes that will allow me to book more mileage flights.

By the way, if Delta later does a schedule change to the first one-way that makes you miss the start of your second one-way, just call reservations. They will fix it at no charge even though you booked them separately.
Thanks a lot for the advice Bowgie.

Yep. Was up til 12:30 here in Bogota working out routing that fit my schedule. Didn't even think about booking into next year. :-(

Too late now.

Thanks, OP. Scored one this morning just before the pull.
