5/13 late processing? Class flown question...

Anyone else fly 5/11, and see late processing for that day today (5/13). Core and bonus miles usually post by 6am, but about 12pm the flight finally came up with a "Q" code on my online FF statement. Anyone else see late posting?

Also, I'm showing a class Flown/Paid of Y/K. I've seen K/K in the past, so I know you can pay K and fly K. I've also seen V/K, and L/K. Any idea why I flew Y this time? I was in my original seat from purchase (16C), so not sure why this would change. Change in equipment? Not important, one of those "gotta wonder" questions.

Thanks!

It happens every so often. Give it a few days and NWA will straighten out on their own. It will end up K/K.

Oh, I'm not worried, really. If anything, I'd say half of my Y flights are flown in a different class then paid. It just made me curious how I ended up purchasing the cheapest fare and flying the most expensive...

"Q" just converted to flights/miles, about 2 hours after the "Q" appeared. Oddly, the SuperSize miles posted to the second outbound flight, not the last return flight. Hey, I'm just glad the SS miles posted, and didn't need manual intervention.

Must be one of those processing days.

By the way, if you take a bump you would typically get re-booked in Y, F, or P. In the past this meant a 50% elite bonus. But I think they fixed it!

One thing I do miss about DL... your milage is calculated on class flown, not class paid. So flying in Y give you Y bonus, as does flying in F giving F bonus. All of those R/F flights would give 50% EQM. Oh, well...

Steve, you may need to pick up smoking so you have something to do every half hour instead of checking your nwa account.

it worked for me
