    So we assume that DL does not put AF folks up front either?

    why would you assume that? I understand DL is pretty good about OAL in biz class.
    I've seen lots of OAL on DL overseas flights in the front. Even some of the long hauls like ATL/JNB!
    I've recently been monitoring some LIM flts and I do see OAL going to coach more than emps/buddies but ehre are weight/cargo/load issues.
    Pago Flyer--or anyone else, Jumper etc--do you have any idea what a priority K237 or K199 is for seating? I saw them today for the first time--they were all "DS" designated before being assigned seats.. (?) Thanks--it's just a mystery to me!

    I concur with 767er re DL 'upgrading'. Well before 'my' airline NW was a mere gleam in Delta's eye. that is well before any merger thoughts, we consistently got up front out of JFK, often back from NCE, and usually out of BDL, all on DL.
    So, mrs767er, here's a follow-up. I didn't realize that our fares w. AF were ZED low..can't tell from the OAL agreement chart, since AF is listed there unlike any other airline, as "Joint Venture" whatever that is. I asked Pinnacle's pass bureau, and they said it was because of a special AF-DL relation, that the tix were cheaper than normal ZED tickets. So you are saying they're equivalent to ZED lo? They said I can just go to any Deta ticket counter and they will know how to sell me an AF ticket just like any ZED ticket. I wonder if we can by First (or business) class tickets, just to have a better chance of getting on?
    Thanks for your CDG January experience, but my trip being end of June makes me a bit more nervous.
