Time to review the blog posts from this past week and to start planning for 2019. Be ready for Delta’s “buy mqms / mqds” to go live in the next few days at yet higher mind numbing prices and at higher levels again for those who want them most.
Were there other travel headlines you loved? If so, please comment below and please do include a link to the story. Lastly, remember when this happened about a year ago on a Delta jet? – René

Wow Delta said that so diplomatically lol. Sometimes I wish companies were just brutally honest. As in, “we realize our Comfort + seating is just a coach seat with mildly better service whereas our partner treat Premium economy as a true experience differentiator. So to avoid having partners book people into what they think is equitable product when it’s really a downgrade, we will reclassify the seat to what it actually is.” And done.
Rene, it seems people aren’t reading the fine print regarding Basic Economy… I’m of two minds on this topic. Read and understand the issue. And maybe BE isn’t such a good idea in the first place…
