THANKS NETZIH!!

I am still looking for data points as to whether people skipping the flight to YYZ will get partner credit. I believe the earliest flights available in this deal were in November (although if I'm wrong and people were already able to take some of those flights, please correct me), so I assume we'll have to wait until mid-to-late November for the brave individuals who chance it to educate the rest of us.

1) Don't credit your miles to United. There have been many reports of United miles being clawed!

If you don't know what fuel dump is, how can you make a comment about the likeliness of being caught?

This doesn't jive well, its been about 20 hours since these ridiculous fares have been found and booked probably by 100's if not 1000's of people, and look I am not calling the airlines complaining or anything like that, but don't you think they would have woken up and smelt the coffee by now?

I know this comment will be obliterated with negative responses, so let the flaming begin.

I was saying what I would say to them if they asked me about it. Seems totally unprovable

Do you realize how big of a company US airways is?

They have over three thousand daily flights, with over 30,000 employees.

This probably isn't even a blip on their radar... even if booked by 1000+ people (which I'm not sure it has even).

Never underestimate the incompetence of big companies.

This is very apparent given the time it took to catch on to this deal.

I myself who almost never impulses to purchase flights bought three (with orbitz cancellation policy being considered)

I can't imagine the bookings  aren't in the 1000's by now. Going to do a poll on the forum and see how many tickets were booked.

Many people booked without posting on DD or DDF.

Any my poll can be found here: http://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=31965.0

Can you add it to the wiki since your the one maintaining it it looks like.

Furthermore, it doesn't look like its caught wind like the previous ElAl deal..

Your poll is worthless because regardless of whether you have 5 or 200 responses, you have no idea what percentage of people who purchased responded to your poll.

Why are you the second person in 10 minutes to call my poll worthless? 

Just trying to evaluate the reach, I know its not solid statistical information just a poll, all of you take it with a grain of salt. If you want to answer answer otherwise move on!
