I was a PE on a H fare once booked more than a week out, ended up being #24 on the WL on a Friday DCA-MSP flight once. Talk about elite heavy.

What I think is ironic is that DL is moving 319's from the only place in this country where the economy is booming (i.e Washington, DC) and putting them on low yield highly competitive Florida routes out of LGA. Makes perfect sense to me :(

Looks like more schedule changes have been uploaded into the NW/DL system -- causing me to have to completely re-route my flight to Asia. You might want to check your itineraries.

It seems like every 2 weeks, one of my itineraries has changed. Another enhancement. :(

The level of service was a joke anyway. A pathetic attempt by the now impotent NWA to punish Air Tran. No doubt NW was losing its shirt trying to price match FL.

Perhaps keener minds at NW decided to chase real revenue instead of price-matching an LCC.

Cut capacity and raise fares.

yes... but with most companies these days... DL ticket = $325, UA ticket = $300 guess what fare gets purchased... and which company profits.

WE are looking at prices more, but if it is close no one looses any sleep over it. Our new limit is within a $100. V
