Klm @ Dtw
Today as I walked through the McNamara Terminal in Detroit I came across AF's "First Flight" celebration at gate A54 inaugurating their long-awaited (and apparently delayed) DTW-CDG route. They had champagne, Perrier, and other treats.
This makes me wonder why KLM never flies the route anymore. I realize that they're codeshared with NWA, but I haven't seen the KLM colors here in years. What's the reason?
As for AF, it's nice to see more colors in my hometown. If only they had a few free tix on the tables with the other freebies... After all, my bags were already packed...

Duplicate threads unnecessary
Do we really need two exact threads on this topic in the same forum. Since this one is smaller and has little general conversation it should probably be closed. At the very least if people stop posting to it and only post in the other one it will dissapear soon enough.

I love the fact that the two most threads at the top of the Forum are the same thing discussing a route that never existed... AH! An exciting day for NW FFers!
