I believe that's what I said or were you just reiterating? If you were referring to the fact that they didn't assign at the kisok, that depends. On a flight with 40 seats open, often seats were in fact assigned at the kiosk.

I did like the nwa system of assigning a seat at the kiosk if the flight was wide open and the check in online saved me from having to bother an outstation gate agent to activate me before the last leg of the trip for commuting purposes, so nice to see that back

I'm just glad DL is finally putting the boarding monitors (standy-list screens) at DTW finally.

Maybe we can get Indiana Jones on the case to uncover other such treasures!

Wow! With that kind of technology maybe NWA could have purchased DAL instead of the other way around! Who knew? The Norse Gods really were onto something. Frikkin' southern rubes.

Interesting info fro Deltas DOT filings:


(data uses 150 seat MD90 vs new 160 seat mod)

Didn't seem to help here:

Delta and Northwest airlines both file for bankruptcy - Sep. 15, 2005

Same day, same place and everything.
