And yes, it's capacity controlled and I believe requires that your paid ticket be in Y, B or M fare class.

If you had read the page you would have seen that that's not true

I'm sorry for misspeaking!

Which part are you referring to? The Y/B/M requirement? Does it say otherwise on the Delta page? I thought I checked that in the past and found that requirement to be in place, but I could be recalling incorrectly. And I'm not seeing where the Delta chart says otherwise...

Not doing it with points, just doing it so I can get the 3.21 on sapphire, and besides the fact that they have pretty decent prices very competitive with priceline kayak etc.
