Yep.

Since I've found them both to be non-refundable I always go with Even Less.

The rules that determine whether they are refundable are myriad and not apparent to the user, so save the money.

I'll also add we are subject to the same $150 change fees as the general public.

Thanks guys. Booked the even less fare and was able to change seats easily on the delta website.

I should add there are some restrictions on which seats you can change to. Window/aisle in the way back was easy. They offer comfort+ and "preferred" seats for extra $. Something like $50 for front of the main cabin window seats and around $85 for comfort+ to OGG.

Only real difference is you earn miles on for less, no miles on for even less.

Default 23K

I was late last evening causing an FAR rest violation for my trip today. Last evening delta calls to put me on 23K with obligation. Makes total sense. Question I do have, am I just pay protected for origional trip or what actually is flown (whichever is better)? Thanks!

Whichever is higher. Check out PWA 4.F.1

Your obligation ends 6 hours after your original report if there has been no assignment by then.

Thanks! I’m aware of the obligation part, just curious if my trip that I’m not flying goes more than what was prigionally paid if they pay me that too or just whatever was guaranteed. Cheap a$$ pilot of me I guess
