Delta Non Rev Question
Just a quick question for seasoned Delta non rev travelers. I am listed on an international flight for tomorrow. Deltanet is showing 25 open seats in business yet it's showing -25 in coach. Will they fill those oversolds into business? Am I risking it trying to get on this flight?

You can look at the "Authorized Available" numbers which are based on historical no-shows -- and hope. And we all know hope is never a good strategy.
In the other direction some nonrevs decide to list for a flight at the last minute, after you've left for the airport.
