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

I booked these tickets to LA and am very excited for my trip. I am flying with my infant who at the time of takeoff will not be 2 yet but will be turning 2 during the trip and will be 2 at the time of my return flight. Will I have any issue being that I did not book a ticket for the child? Will every airline treat this differently?

I got through after 1:45 on hold. The Supervisor was obviously very irritated about this whole thing and was really rude on the phone.

I had "technical difficulties" on my end and got disconnected. I will probably wait some time before calling back about the tickets.

My flight is not for another month. Why would I not just wait a couple of days to call? Is this time sensitive? (Obviously besides for seat availability)

I had two confirmed and the third with Priceline that wasn't. I just wanted to make sure I got the third so I wouldn't have to book it with miles. I'd say you would be ok if you wait but personally I like to know it's taken care of.

My flights in 6 months. Issue is they may just get fed up and find excuses not to honor. Better get in early. I was on hold for 20 min. Rep said hell call me back when he gets supervisor. They called back an hour later and supervisor told me to call back after 12. Pretty stupid of them to tell everyone the same thing. Itll be so much worse after 12.

I just waited for about 55 minutes for a supervisor. The rep I was speaking to said that instead of waiting, when the supervisor answers she will call me on my cell and put me through.

Yes, and yes.

You can also credit to partner airlines like Alaska Air for example.

but unless you have a specific reason to credit the miles to Delta, I would credit them to a different program.

depending on what your future travel plans are, people have been suggesting alaska (especially if you got the recent sign up bonuses) or air france.
