Can you pls make it easier to reset alerts? Often by the time I go to book it the inventory is gone, and it's frustrating to have to start inputting the details again for a new alert.

For Flight Alerts you already can. Just hit the Resubmit button next to a Notified alert for a flight that has yet to depart to change it's status from Notified to Active.

Suggestion for EF... reverse seat alerts informing you if a seat is taken.
(For example... you're in a window seat with an empty aisle seat next to you, and you want to want to know if that empty seat is booked). |
Would it be possible to set up availability alerts for a range of dates rather than just a single date?
Example: I want to book award travel on a route and my dates are flexible. Right now, there is -0- availability during all of January and February 2014, but I'm quite certain something will become available closer in. All I care about is that my trip is somewhere between 3 and 5 weeks in total, so I can be flexible on the outbound and return within a two month+ window. Instead of setting up an alert for each and every day for a 2 month period (and one for each direction), it would be useful if I could set up an alert for any award within a date range. It would even be helpful if just the +/- 3 day option (as with searches) could be set up as an alert. |

Flight Alerts are for specific flights on specific days, there is no multi-date alert. For questions pertaining to usage please see: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/trave...sk-thread.html

Availability alert for married segments
Currently one can only set an alert for fare class availability for an individual segment. I would like to set an alert for availability for a connection (where availability has been restricted by married segments).
I often find that the married segment restrictions come and go, so I would like to know when I can book without the married segment restriction. |
Can't exclude codeshares for UK point of sale
Is this a bug or a feature? :)

Alert me when I lose my seat?

EF is great for an alert when blocked seats are opened up, but having selected a previously blocked seat in the front economy row on BA shorthaul, I would like to be alerted when the curtain is moved, and I lose my seat because the row becomes business! I am not sure how this could be implemented. It either corresponds to an alert when the economy seat becomes invalid, or an alert when the same seat becomes available in business. |

Thanks - I don't think I worded my query properly. I know that it cannot currently be done. I was posing the question as to whether this might be something that could be considered as a future enhancement, similar to how others have posted ideas in this thread for features they'd like to see.

A related issue.

I asked this by email just in case I was missing it, but any plans to add N class (economy award) to DL?

That is up to Delta to make their award inventory available.
