boucharda--correct, you can't copy and paste it. I was pretty shocked at that number of only 9 involuntary bumps by Delta.

As an aside here, Whats going on with Delta? I’ve read and heard of several safety mishaps just this week - one of which actually involved a returning SXM flight at JFK. That’s more than I’ve noticed with any airline in a long time, but then, I guess I usually try NOT to hear about airplane mishaps. I’d far prefer to complain about flight changes rather than actual mishaps.
Respectfully,
pat

Delta had a very good recent quarter.

I also have a crapload 0f AA miles and, yes, the availability of flights is higher but so are the additional charges for the "free" flight...and are the possibilities of not actually flying the time/route you bought
I have used AA miles only twice in the last few years and both times they got messed up with the last one from SXM being a doozy with a few intentional lies thrown at us as reasons
I will use them only if I have no concern when I get to my destination or back home

We're known to be the ones that if anything happens it happens to us lol. Murphy's Law!

We flew Delta in Nov. to/from SXM and no problems at all other than a slight delay leaving DAY due to some maintenance paperwork.

We flew Delta in Nov. to/from SXM and no problems at all other than a slight delay leaving DAY due to some maintenance paperwork. We also flew Delta in November/December, but were forced to check our carry-on bags in Raleigh. We were told that the bins were full, but when we boarded, the bin above our seats was completely empty. After having gone to all the effort of packing carry-on only for a three week trip, it was highly annoying. But, Delta got us there on time, and home only an hour later than scheduled; much better than our usual AA experience.

Hopefully they checked the bags for free. With the turmoil with AA, Delta is the only viable option many people have. I am taking AA down in March and Delta back (due to pricing & sxchedule) and I am still concerned AA is going to mess with the schedule.
