Finally got around to sending an email to NW about my horrible flight cancellation in December... really was a pain, since my Sunday evening redeye from Phoenix was cancelled, and Ellen was on her way to Atlanta. My backup plans worked out... but, it was the worst possible timing for a flight cancellation. NW will be crediting me 19,000 miles {? don't know where they came up with that amount] for my troubles. You can read the details
HERE.
UPDATE :
Just checked nwa.com --- got upgraded for my return redeye on Sunday night...
That is AWESOME... as it gives me maximum time at the Baccarat Tables... since LAS has special First Class security line which can only be used by ticketed FC passengers [not gold and platinums like most elite security lines].
NOW..... I just hope things are going so well that I miss my flight !
Just checked my flight status for Sunday night, 29 January;
for my LAS-DTW redeye connecting to beautiful Dayton International.
absolutely amazing, the flight NOW shows :
P8 F3 Y0 B0 M0 H0 Q0 V0 L0 T0 K0
just a few hours ago, it was P9 F9;
in translation, the flight is completely sold out in back, with just a few seats left in First Class. (the P8 and F3 referring to the 11 seats available for purchase in FC)
Took a quick look at the other NW LAS-DTW flights that day, and they are almost all sold out...
Guess a lot of people need to get home on Sunday.
Still have a pretty good shot at an upgrade, but it will probably be battlefield... I'm sure they will wait until the last moment to move some Elites up to FC --- freeing up extra economy seats in the process.
But, I can still dream [and hope] for the bump and a $300 voucher !
