It is a new policy at DL that they don't allow award travel in F. It goes along with the closer partnership with NW and CO, both of which only offer 2 classes of service.

I was informed by the DL representative that they no longer offer first class award travel on any SkyTeam airline, but I didn't ever receive any notice of this and I have never heard anyone else mention it. Does anyone know if this is the new policy and why it was changed? Thanks in advance!
