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

got a call last night from delta rep saying that since they don't have availability in business for the return, i have the option of changing for a different fight the same day.
i asked if i can therefore also change the outgoing flight. she said no.

she said I will get a call from supervisor to charge my CC.

When the sup calls u, make a big deal about the time change, and because of the return change you don't have enough time at your destination, so you need to change the outgoing..

I got an email yesterday that Delta changed the times of departure on my $40 ticket to Kauai, After a 20 min conversation with a rep. I was able to change the time and location of my tickets, now I am going to Mauai (which I have never been to) and I was able to fly earlier.
Thanks Delta!

https://www.starwoodhotels.com/preferredguest/account/benefits/delta/confirm.html

it already started last march, but according to this you would not earn spg points.

If you are registered for Crossover Rewards, are a SPG Platinum or Gold elite member, and you book a Delta marketed (e.g., has a DL flight number) flight (excluding bookings made through online travel agencies (e.g., priceline.com, expedia.com, booking.com, orbitz.com, elong.com)), then in addition to the miles you already earn, you will also earn:

• one Starpoint for every one U.S. dollar or its foreign equivalent spent on Delta fares (excluding taxes and fees);

or

• 500 Starpoints for special Delta fares, often referred to as unpublished fares, including but not limited to consolidator fares, tour, groups, merchant marine and cruise packages.

When did you send the fax? I hope I miss my flight this coming Sunday and get the same offer so I can go in the summer instead!

I faxed and emailed on the first day they said they would honor those tickets.

I was in middle of an interview when they called, I looked at the phone for like 20 seconds debating if i should answer. Finally I asked the guy to hold on and answered the phone.  ??? :P ::)

I got the price line delta tickets in coach then they honored my pricline same tickets in Buisness (via delta). How in the world can I cancel those priceline coach tickets? Delta tells me to call price line, priceline said to call delta.

I have 5 tickets for coach and 5 tickets for business all with the same names on the same flight!
If I can't cancel is there a way to at least get the miles for both???
