FOR PRICELINE RESERVATIONS WITH BOOKING FAILURE
Call Priceline 1800-259-2091 dial 3 and then 1 and ask for the contract receipt.
Then fax the contract to Delta with your name, email and phone number to 1801-575-3000
UPDATE: It is no longer necessary to fax in anything to Delta. Just call Delta direct, with the priceline conf number, ask for a supervisor, and they are honoring all tickets! ;D

Just got my tickets confirmed! 8) 3 tix to Maui in august for $266. I just called Delta,asked to speak to a supervisor, He asked me for my priceline conf number, looked it up confirmed passengers,dates, and sent me my tix! The whole process including wait time took 30 minutes. The only drawback is that my first leg was supposed to be in biz, but i got ticketed in economy. I will call tom and ask to change it.

Is there a chance they'll be out of room in business class ? If so what will they do?

Probably not. I'm not really a hotel guy, and especially with a 2 day shabbos I'll probably rent a house with a pool instead.

Haleakala sunrise DO? :D

what 2 day shabbat ?

From the Kauai wiki:

Quote
What about Shabbos?
Some authorities hold that there's a dateline issue with Shabbos.
The local communities keep shabbos on Saturday.
Definitely ask your LOR before you go - some hold simply that Shabbos is on Saturday, some hold that you have to keep Shabbos on both Friday and Saturday, and some hold that you have to keep D'oreisas on Friday and full Shabbos on Saturday.

If you must keep 2 days, remember that there are many questions that could come up (such as when to light Shabbos candles, how to warm up food, etc.), so make sure to discuss it all with your LOR.

There have been books written about the Chabad opinion of keeping shabbos only on Saturday. Rabbi Aharon Dovid Gancz gives an absolutely fascinating pilpul on the topic, if you get a chance to attend one please record it (with permission) and upload the video online.

I don't think that's relevant; I don't want anyone basing their halacha on what my rav told me.

Basically everyone should ask their LOR and do accordingly.

Amazes me the amount of people here complaining with almost nobody complimenting Delta on the "gift" they are giving.

Wonder if the same people sending DOT complaints are emailing Delta thank you letters after they get their Priceline itineraries confirmed (which Delta had no reason to do)
I didn't send a complaint but I took your advice and sent them a thank you note.

Thanks for the idea.

in all honesty i wasent asking to bash, just curious because there are few opinions, I read about it years ago in shmirat shabbat k'hilchasa, but I think its covered here http://www.star-k.org/kashrus/kk-trav-dateline.htm

However, Rav Yosef Yitzchak Marlow told me that if I made plans to spend shabbat with the chabbad shliach there, he is my "shliach" in the area and I follow his times
