I got a NWA travel voucher...
In July, I got involuntarily bumped from a Northwest Airlines flight,
and they gave me a travel voucher good for a free round-trip ticket anywhere in the USA, including Alaska but not Hawaii. Several people told me I should book a flight as soon as possible, because there are very few seats available for these vouchers (one person said, "Book it eleven months ahead"). I just called NWA and tried to book a flight to Anchorage in June 2005, returning 12 days later. The reservation agent said nothing was available to fly to Anchorage until July 4, 2005, and there were no return flights available for me until August 20th!!! He said I should call back in a couple of months, because the flights were not yet "set up" that far in advance. I know lots of people get bumped. How can you actually use the free ticket? Are there likely to be more seats available later, or less? The ticket is pretty useless to me if I can't get a return flight about two weeks after the outgoing flight. Hmmm... is this how the airline saves money, by making it virtually impossible to use the voucher? - Zelda |
